Convection in a differentially heated rotating spherical shell of Boussinesq fluid with radiative forcing
In this study we investigate the flow of a Boussinesq fluid contained in a rotating, differentially heated spherical shell. Previous work, on the spherical shell of Boussinesq fluid, differentially heated the shell by prescribing temperature on the inner boundary of the shell, setting the …

Analytical investigations of convective effects on a solid-liquid interface
A thin layer of a single-component Boussinesq fluid, contained between two rigid horizontal plates of low thermal conductivity, is cooled from above and heated from below. In the steady-static state, a heat flux traverses the system so that the temperature attained at the upper boundary of the …

Theoretical and experimental study of nonlinear internal gravity wave beams
Continuously stratified fluids, like the atmosphere and the oceans, support internal gravity waves due to the effect of buoyancy. This type of wave motion is anisotropic since gravity provides a preferred direction. As a result, a localized source oscillating at a frequency below the buoyancy …

Hydrodynamics of Cyclogenesis from Numerical Simulations
… in a shallow cylindrical domain filled with Boussinesq fluid. In atmospheric flows, the large eddies are responsible for turbulent transport since they contain most of the turbulent kinetic energy. Thus, the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique that explicitly resolves the larger eddies and …
