Dynamic of plumes and scaling during the melting of a Phase Change Material heated from below
Santiago Madruga, Jezabel Curbelo
We identify and describe the main dynamic regimes occurring during the melting of the PCM n-octadecane in horizontal layers of several sizes heated from below. This configuration a…
Decomposition driven interface evolution for layers of binary mixtures: {II}. Influence of convective transport on linear stability
Santiago Madruga, Uwe Thiele
We study the linear stability with respect to lateral perturbations of free surface films of polymer mixtures on solid substrates. The study focuses on the stability properties of…
Decomposition driven interface evolution for layers of binary mixtures: I. Model derivation and stratified base states
Uwe Thiele, Santiago Madruga, Lubor Frastia
A dynamical model is proposed to describe the coupled decomposition and profile evolution of a free surface film of a binary mixture. An example is a thin film of a polymer blend o…
Reentrant and Whirling Hexagons in Non-Boussinesq convection
Santiago Madruga, Hermann Riecke
We review recent computational results for hexagon patterns in non-Boussinesq convection. For sufficiently strong dependence of the fluid parameters on the temperature we find reen…
Many Attractors, Long Chaotic Transients, and Failure in Small-World Networks of Excitable Neurons
Hermann Riecke, Alex Roxin, Santiago Madruga +1
We study the dynamical states that emerge in a small-world network of recurrently coupled excitable neurons through both numerical and analytical methods. These dynamics depend in…
Non-Boussinesq Convection at Low Prandtl Numbers: Hexagons and Spiral Defect Chaos
Santiago Madruga, Hermann Riecke
We study the stability and dynamics of non-Boussinesq convection in pure gases (CO and SF) with Prandtl numbers near and in a H-Xe mixture with .…
