Localized Instabilities and Spinodal Decomposition in Driven Systems in the Presence of Elasticity
Esteban Meca, Andreas Münch, Barbara Wagner
We study numerically and analytically the instabilities associated with phase separation in a solid layer on which an external material ux is imposed. The first instability is loca…
Transient convective instabilities in directional solidification
Esteban Meca, Laureano Ramirez-Piscina
We study the convective instability of the melt during the initial transient in a directional solidification experiment in a vertical configuration. We obtain analytically the disp…
Complex dynamics in double-diffusive convection
Esteban Meca, Isabel Mercader, Oriol Batiste +1
The dynamics of a small Prandtl number binary mixture in a laterally heated cavity is studied numerically. By combining temporal integration, steady state solving and linear stabil…
A blue sky catastrophe in double-diffusive convection
Esteban Meca, Isabel Mercader, Oriol Batiste +1
A global bifurcation of the blue sky catastrophe type has been found in a small Prandtl number binary mixture contained in a laterally heated cavity. The system has been studied nu…
