The paper presents a comparative study of a number of theoretical/experimental/numerical
results concerning the dynamics of natural (gravitational), Marangoni and related mixed …

Modal global linear stability analysis of thermal convection is performed with the linearized
lattice Boltzmann method (LLBM). The onset of Rayleigh–Bénard convection in rectangular …

The instabilities and transitions of flow in a vertical cylindrical cavity with heated bottom,
cooled top and insulated sidewall are investigated by linear stability analysis. The stability …

The transient behavior of the natural convection boundary-layer flow adjacent to a vertical
plate heated with a uniform flux in a quiescent homogeneous ambient fluid with Prandtl …

The multiplicity, stability and bifurcations of low-Prandtl-number steady natural convection in
a two-dimensional rectangular cavity with partially and symmetrically heated vertical walls …

The present analysis extends the author's earlier work [Lappa, Phys. Fluids 26, 093301
(2014) 10.1063/1.4893078] on the properties of patterns formed by the spontaneous …

A study of the effect of an externally imposed magnetic field on the axisymmetry-breaking
