Reduced wave number dynamics in the real and complex Ginzburg-Landau equations
Yijun Lin, Adrian van Kan, Edgar Knobloch
We study large-scale dynamics in the Ginzburg-Landau equation (GLE) using a reduced description derived from a WKB expansion. Rigorous mathematical results establishing that this r…

Accurate simulation of pulled and pushed fronts in the nonautonomous Fisher-KPP equation
Troy Tsubota, Smridhi Mahajan, Adrian van Kan +1
We introduce a novel numerical method for direct simulation of front propagation in the Fisher-KPP equation with a time-dependent parameter on an infinite domain. The method comput…

Rescaled Equations for Well-Conditioned Direct Numerical Simulations of Rapidly Rotating Convection
Keith Julien, Adrian van Kan, Benjamin Miquel +2
Convection is a ubiquitous process driving geophysical/astrophysical fluid flows, which are typically strongly constrained by planetary rotation on large scales. A celebrated model…
