Spontaneous generation of helical flows by salt fingers

Adrian E. Fraser, Adrian van Kan, Edgar Knobloch +2

We study the dynamics of salt fingers in the regime of slow salinity diffusion (small inverse Lewis number) and strong stratification (large density ratio), focusing on regimes rel…

Traveling spatially localized convective structures in an inclined porous medium

Zhiwei Dave Li, Chang Liu, Adrian van Kan +1

Multiple stationary, localized structures were recently found for inclined porous medium convection with constant-temperature boundaries. We analyze traveling asymmetric, localized…

Fixed-flux Rayleigh-Bénard convection in doubly periodic domains: generation of large-scale shear

Chang Liu, Manjul Sharma, Keith Julien +1

This work studies two-dimensional fixed-flux Rayleigh-Bénard convection with periodic boundary conditions in both horizontal and vertical directions and analyzes its dynamics using…

Bifurcation delay and front propagation in the real Ginzburg-Landau equation on a time-dependent domain

Troy Tsubota, Chang Liu, Benjamin Foster +1

This work analyzes bifurcation delay and front propagation in the one-dimensional real Ginzburg-Landau equation (RGLE) with periodic boundary conditions on monotonically growing or…

Fluctuation-Induced Transitions in Anisotropic Two-Dimensional Turbulence

Lichuan Xu, Adrian van Kan, Chang Liu +1

Two-dimensional (2D) turbulence features an inverse energy cascade that produces large-scale flow structures such as large-scale vortices (LSVs) and unidirectional jets. We investi…
