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 reentrance of steady
hexagons, i.e. while near onset the hexagon patterns become unstable
to rolls as usually, they become again stable in the strongly
nonlinear regime. If the convection apparatus is rotated about a
vertical axis the transition from hexagons to rolls is replaced by a
Hopf bifurcation to whirling hexagons. For weak non-Boussinesq effects
they display defect chaos of the type described by the two-dimensional (2D)
complex Ginzburg–Landau equation. For stronger non-Boussinesq effects
the Hopf bifurcation becomes subcritical and localized bursting of the
whirling amplitude is found. In this regime the coupling of the
whirling amplitude to (small) deformations of the hexagon lattice
becomes important. For yet stronger non-Boussinesq effects this
coupling breaks up the hexagon lattice and strongly disordered states
characterized by whirling and lattice defects are obtained. 相似文献

A generalization of the Swift-Hohenberg (SH) equation is used to study several stationary patterns that appear in hydrodynamical instabilities. The corresponding amplitude equations allow one to find the stability of planforms with different symmetries. These results are compared with numerical simulations of a generalized SH equation (GSHE). The transition between different symmetries, the hysteretic effects, and the characteristics of the defects observed in experiments are well reproduced in these simulations. The existence of steady fronts between domains with different symmetries is also analyzed. Steady domain boundaries between hexagons and rolls, and between hexagons and squares are possible solutions in the amplitude equation framework and are obtained in numerical simulations for a full range of coefficients in the GSHE. 相似文献

We employ numerical computations of the full Navier-Stokes equations to investigate non-Boussinesq convection in a rotating system using water as the working fluid. We identify two regimes. For weak non-Boussinesq effects the Hopf bifurcation from steady to oscillating (whirling) hexagons is supercritical and typical states exhibit defect chaos that is systematically described by the cubic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. For stronger non-Boussinesq effects the Hopf bifurcation becomes subcritical and the oscillations exhibit localized chaotic bursting, which is modeled by a quintic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. 相似文献

The exact solution of a Fokker-Planck equation yields a distribution function which governs the stability and fluctuations of various mode configurations (e.g. hexagons and roles) of the Bénard convection of fluids and related problems. 相似文献

We have identified experimentally secondary instability mechanisms that restrict the stable band of wave numbers for ideal hexagons in Bénard-Marangoni convection. We use "thermal laser writing" to impose long wave perturbations of ideal hexagonal patterns as initial conditions and measure the growth rates of the perturbations. For epsilon=0.46 our results suggest a longitudinal phase instability limits stable hexagons at a high wave number while a transverse phase instability limits low wave number hexagons. 相似文献

Weakly nonlinear spatially periodic patterns coupled to a Goldstone (zero) mode of the phase-field crystal model are investigated. Rotationally invariant equations for the dynamics of the amplitudes of a hexagonal pattern are derived first, which then allows us to determine stability regions for stripes and hexagons. There are parameter regimes in which all periodic patterns become unstable as a result of long-wavelength instabilities generated by the zero mode. 相似文献

Rotational symmetry of pattern formation problems is the origin of a variety of patterns (rolls, squares, hexagons etc.) in convection and reaction-diffusion systems. Traditionally, only the patterns based on equilateral lattices in the Fourier space were considered. In the present paper, we develop an analysis of the patterns with slightly different lengths of the basic wave vectors. The analysis applies as well to systems with a broken rotational symmetry (convection in an inclined layer, etc.). We find, in the framework of the amplitude equations, existence and stability conditions for periodic nonequilateral patterns based on two and three wave vectors. In the latter case, special attention is paid to the case when the three amplitudes are coupled by the resonant interaction. 相似文献

The model system of ordinary differential equations [1, 2] governing the behavior of a non-uniformly heated fluid in a tilted
cavity is used for studying the stability of steady regimes of thermal convection at arbitrary (not small) tilting of the
rectangular cavity. The bifurcation curve is constructed, which separates the region of parameters (the Rayleigh number —
the cavity tilting angle) into two regions — the internal and external ones. In the external region, the system has one stable
steady solution, and in the internal region, it has three steady solutions. One of them is always unstable in a monotone way,
and two others may be both stable and unstable. The neutral curves are constructed, which determine the boundaries of the
incipience of the oscillatory and monotone instabilities.

Neural fields receive inputs from local and nonlocal sources. Notably in a biologically realistic architecture the latter vary under spatial translations (heterogeneous), the former do not (homogeneous). To understand the mutual effects of homogeneous and heterogeneous connectivity, we study the stability of the steady state activity of a neural field as a function of its connectivity and transmission speed. We show that myelination, a developmentally relevant change of the heterogeneous connectivity, always results in the stabilization of the steady state via oscillatory instabilities, independent of the local connectivity. Nonoscillatory instabilities are shown to be independent of any influences of time delay. 相似文献

By using the mathematical formalism of absolute and convective instabilities we study the nature of unstable three-dimensional disturbances of viscoelastic flow convection in a porous medium with horizontal through-flow and vertical temperature gradient. Temporal stability analysis reveals that among three-dimensional (3D) modes the pure down-stream transverse rolls are favored for the onset of convection. In addition, by considering a spatiotemporal stability approach we found that all unstable 3D modes are convectively unstable except the transverse rolls which may experience a transition to absolute instability. The combined influence of through-flow and elastic parameters on the absolute instability threshold, wave number and frequency is then determined, and results are compared to those of a Newtonian fluid. 相似文献

Using a recently derived non-linear partial differential equation describing the temperature field we have performed computer calculations on the evolving convection patterns in different geometries. In this way we calculate the generation of various patterns e.g. of rolls or hexagons. 相似文献

Natural convection of the incompressible fluid in the porous media based on the Darcy hypothesis (Lapwood convection) gives an intriguing branching off of one-parameter family of steady patterns. This scenario may be suppressed in computations when governing equations are approximated by schemes which do not preserve the cosymmetry property. We consider the problem for the annular porous domain in polar coordinates and derive a mimetic finite-difference scheme. This scheme allows to compute the family of convective regimes accurately and to detect the instabilities on some parts of the family. 相似文献

The onset of Soret-driven instability in binary mixture heated from above is analysed using the linear stability theory. The
horizontal fluid layer placed between two plates is in a thermally stable state but the Soret diffusion can induce buoyancy-driven
convection in the case of a negative Soret coefficient. It is well known that convective motion sets in from both boundaries
if the Rayleigh number exceeds its critical value. For the case of highly unstable density stratification the buoyancy-driven
motion sets in during the transient diffusion stage. The new stability equations are derived and are solved analytically and
numerically. Here the stability limits which are related to the onset time of instabilities and wave number are presented
as a function of the Rayleigh number, Lewis number and the separation ratio. The present stability criteria are compared with
the existing experimental data. 相似文献

The input power density and hence the output power of electrically excited gasdynamic lasers is limited by instabilities of
the glow discharge. The application of theoretical results, which have been obtained with respect of convection or flow lasers,
to the discharge region of an electrically excited gasdynamic CO-laser shows, that especially thermal instabilities cause
this glow collapse. An increased convection of local heat concentrations in front of the anode surface results in an improved
stability behaviour. Input power densities of up to 100 W/cm3 are now accessible to operate the glow discharge and hence specific laser output powers of 57 kJ/kg are obtained. 相似文献

The Eckhaus stability boundaries of travelling periodic roll patterns arising in binary fluid convection is analysed using high-resolution numerical methods. We present results corresponding to three different values of the separation ratio used in experiments. Our results show that the subcritical branches of travelling waves bifurcating at the onset of convection suffer sideband instabilities that are restabilised further away in the branch. If this restabilisation is produced after the turning point of the travelling-wave branch, these waves do not become stable in a saddle node bifurcation as would have been the case in a smaller domain. In the regions of instability of the uniform travelling waves we expect to find either transitions between states of different wave number or modulated travelling waves arising in these bifurcations. 相似文献

We present experimental studies of a new pattern sequence observed in non-Boussinesq convection in a compressible fluid near its gas-liquid critical point (CP). Besides the known hysteretic transitions among conduction state, hexagons, and rolls, another hysteretic transition from rolls to hexagons at higher values of the control parameter is found. This reentrance phenomenon is observed in a rather narrow range of about 60- to 100-microm cell heights and is attributed to large compressibility of a fluid near the CP. 相似文献

We investigate the effect of coupling between diffraction and walk-off on secondary instabilities in nondegenerate optical parametric oscillators. We show that traveling waves that propagate in the walk-off direction, which are generated at the onset of absolute instability, experience Eckhaus and zigzag phase instabilities. Each of these secondary instabilities splits into absolute and convective instabilities that modify the Eckhaus and zigzag instability boundaries. As a consequence, the stability domain of modulated traveling waves is enlarged and may coexist with uniform steady states. The predictions are consistent with the numerical solutions of the optical parametric oscillator model. 相似文献

This article presents the experimental investigation on instabilities of thermocapillary-buoyancy convection in the transition process in an open rectangular liquid layer subject to a horizontal temperature gradient. In the experimental run,an infrared thermal imaging system was constructed to observe and record the surface wave of the rectangular liquid layer. It was found that there are distinct convection longitudinal rolls in the flow field in the thermocapillary-buoyancy convection transition process. There are different wave characterizations for liquid layers with different thicknesses. For sufficiently thin layers, oblique hydrothermal waves are observed, which was predicted by the linear-stability analysis of Smith Davis in 1983. For thicker layers, the surface flow is distinct and intensified, which is because the buoyancy convection plays a dominant role and bulk fluid flow from hot wall to cold wall in the free surface of liquid layers. In addition, the spatiotemporal evolution analysis has been carried out to conclude the rule of the temperature field destabilization in the transition process. 相似文献

We analyze probe data obtained from a toroidal magnetized plasma configuration suitable for studies of low-frequency gradient-driven
instabilities. These instabilities give rise to field-aligned convection rolls analogous to Rayleigh-Benard cells in neutral
fluids, and may theoretically develop similar routes to chaos.
When using mean-field dimension analysis, we observe low dimensionality, but this could originate from either low-dimensional
chaos, periodicity or quasi-periodicity. Therefore, we apply recurrence plot analysis as well as estimation of the largest
Lyapunov exponent. These analyses provide evidence of low-dimensional chaos, in agreement with theoretical predictions. Our
results can be applied to other magnetized plasma configurations, where gradient-driven instabilities dominate the
dynamics of the system. 相似文献

A one-dimensional, non-premixed flame stability analysis is undertaken.Oscillatory and cellular flame instabilities are identified by a careful studyof the numerically calculated eigenvalues of the linearized system of equations. The numerical investigation details the critical locations for changes in flame behaviour, as well as the critical values of variousparameters that affect flame stability. A critical Lewis number, greaterthan unity, is identified as the value where unstable oscillations maybegin to appear (Le?>?Le c) and for which cellular flames can exist(Le?<?Le c). Some prior discussions are clarified regarding theaforementioned critical values, as well as the role of convection inproducing flame instabilities. The methodology of the stability analysis isdiscussed in detail. 相似文献
