Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional convection in a horizontal fluid layer subjected to a constant shear
TL;DR: In this paper, the stability of Rayleigh-Be'nard convection in the presence of a plane Couette flow is investigated by numerical computations and it is shown that at Prandtl numbers of the order unity or less these rolls become unstable with respect to the wavy instability which introduces wavy distortions perpendicular to the axis of the rolls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear convection in a layer with nearly insulating boundaries
Friedrich H. Busse,N. Riahi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a general class of solutions describing three-dimensional steady convection flows in a fluid layer heated from below with boundaries of low thermal conductivity is studied and the physically realizable convection flow is determined by a stability analysis with respect to arbitrary threedimensional disturbances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tertiary and quaternary solutions for plane Couette flow
TL;DR: In this paper, the manifold of those steady solutions is explored in the parameter space of the plane Couette system and their instabilities are investigated, which usually lead to time-periodic solutions whose properties do not differ much from those of the steady solutions except that the amplitude varies in time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oscillatory and collective instabilities in large Prandtl number convection
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study of transitions from steady bimodal convection to time-dependent forms of convection is described, and two mechanisms of instability can be separated from the effects of random noise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bounds for turbulent shear flow
TL;DR: In this paper, bounds on the transport of momentum in turbulent shear flow are derived by variational methods, in particular variational problems for the turbulent regimes of plane Couette flow, channel flow, and pipe flow.
