The effect of induced magnetic fields on convective stability of a conductive liquid carrying a current

The stability of equilibrium in a plane layer of an electrically conductive liquid located in electric and magnetic fields is considered. The effect of an unperturbed induced magnetic field and its perturbations on stability of this type is considered. The stability is analyzed nonlinearly.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 102–110, January–February, 1974.
