Effect of oblique horizontal magnetic field on convection rolls
Snehashish Sarkar, Sutapa Mandal, Pinaki Pal
We investigate the effect of external horizontal magnetic field applied on the convection rolls obliquely (at an angle with the -axis) in electrically conducting low Prandtl…
Transitions near the onset of stationary rotating magnetoconvection: role of magnetic Prandtl number
Snehashish Sarkar, Sutapa Mandal, Pinaki Pal
We investigate the instabilities and associated bifurcation structure near the onset of rotating magnetoconvection of low Prandtl number fluids by performing three dimensional dire…
One dimensional models for supercritical and subcritical transitions in rotating convection
Sutapa Mandal, Snehashish Sarkar, Pinaki Pal
Numerous study on natural and man made systems including rotating convection report the phenomena of supercritical and subcritical transitions from one state to another with the va…
Effect of horizontal magnetic field on Küppers-Lortz instability
Sutapa Mandal, Snehashish Sarkar, Pinaki Pal
We investigate the effect of an external horizontal magnetic field on the Küppers-Lortz instability (KLI) in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection of Boussinesq fluids using weakly n…
