Optimal velocity fields for instantaneous magnetic field growth
Nicholas J. Moore, Stefan G. Llewellyn Smith
We consider a variant of the kinematic dynamo problem. Rather than prescribing a velocity field and searching for high-growth magnetic fields via an eigenvalue problem, we treat th…

Low-order reaction-diffusion system approximates heat transfer and flow structure in annular convection
Yuejia Zhang, Nicholas J. Moore, Jinzi Mac Huang
Heat transfer in a fluid can be greatly enhanced by natural convection, giving rise to the nuanced relationship between the Nusselt number and Rayleigh number that has been a focus…
