Natural convection in a vertical channel. Part 3. Bifurcations of many (additional) unstable periodic orbits and their dynamical relevance
Zheng Zheng, Laurette S. Tuckerman, Tobias M. Schneider
Vertical thermal convection system exhibits weak turbulence and spatio-temporally chaotic behaviour. In this system, we report seven equilibria and 26 periodic orbits, all new and…
Convection in a Rapidly Rotating Spherical Shell: Newton's Method Using Implicit Coriolis Integration
Juan Cruz Gonzalez Sembla, Camille Rambert, Fred Feudel +1
Geophysical flows are characterized by rapid rotation. Simulating these flows requires small timesteps to achieve stability and accuracy. Numerical stability can be greatly improve…
Drift, diffusion and divergence
Laurette S. Tuckerman
Turbulent Taylor-Couette flow displays traces of axisymmetric Taylor vortices even at high Reynolds numbers. With this motivation, Feldmann & Avila (2025) carry out long-time numer…
Marangoni-driven patterns, ridges, and hills in surfactant-covered parametric surface waves
Debashis Panda, Lyes Kahouadji, Laurette Tuckerman +4
Parametric oscillations of an interface separating two fluid phases create nonlinear surface waves, called Faraday waves, which organise into simple patterns, like squares and hexa…
