Convective nature of planimetric instability in meandering

Absolute versus convective instability of spiral waves

Absolute and convective instabilities of spirals are investigated using the continuous and the so-called absolute spectrum. It is shown that the nature of transport, induced by an absolute instability, is determined by spectral data of the asymptotic wave trains. The results are applied to core and far-field breakup of spiral waves in excitable and oscillatory media.

Impact of Magnetic Field on Convective Flow of a Micropolar Fluid with two Parallel Heat Source

A numerical study is performed to analysis the buoyancy convection induced by the parallel heated baffles in an inclined square cavity. The two side walls of the cavity are maintained at a constant temperature. A uniformly thin heated plate is placed at the centre of the cavity. The horizontal top and bottom walls are adiabatic. Numerical solutions of governing equations are obtained using the ...
