Ordering kinetics of stripe patterns
Denis Boyer, Jorge Vinals
We study domain coarsening of two dimensional stripe patterns by numerically solving the Swift-Hohenberg model of Rayleigh-Benard convection. Near the bifurcation threshold, the ev…
Interface and contact line motion in a two phase fluid under shear flow
Hsuan-Yi Chen, David Jasnow, Jorge Vinals
A coarse grained description of a two phase fluid is used to study the steady state configuration of the interface separating the coexisting phases, and the motion of the contact l…
Amplitude equations and pattern selection in Faraday waves
Peilong Chen, Jorge Vinals
A nonlinear theory of pattern selection in parametric surface waves (Faraday waves) is presented that is not restricted to small viscous dissipation. By using a multiple scale asym…
Fluctuations and Pattern Selection Near an Eckhaus Instability
E. Hernandez-Garcia, Jorge Vinals, Raul Toral +1
We study the effect of fluctuations in the vicinity of an Eckhaus instability. The classical stability limit, which is defined in the absence of fluctuations, is smeared out into a…
Study of spiral pattern formation in Rayleigh-Benard convection
Hao-wen Xi, J. D. Gunton, Jorge Vinals
We present a numerical study of a generalized two-dimensional Swift-Hohenberg model of spiral pattern formation in Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a non-Boussinesq fluid. We demonstr…
New Dynamic Monte Carlo Renormalization Group Method
Martin-D. Lacasse, Jorge Vinals, Martin Grant
The dynamical critical exponent of the two-dimensional spin-flip Ising model is evaluated by a Monte Carlo renormalization group method involving a transformation in time. The resu…
