Tipping points in Cattaneo-Christov thermohaline convection (2011)
Journal Article
Straughan, B. (2011). Tipping points in Cattaneo-Christov thermohaline convection. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 467(2125), 7-18. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2010.0104

A model is proposed for thermohaline convection when the heat flux satisfies a relaxation time law rather than the classical Fourier one. Here, we adopt the recent law due to Christov. That a Cattaneo-like law would be relevant in thermohaline convec... Read More about Tipping points in Cattaneo-Christov thermohaline convection.

Poiseuille flow in a fluid overlying a porous medium (2008)
Journal Article
Hill, A., & Straughan, B. (2008). Poiseuille flow in a fluid overlying a porous medium. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 603, 137-149. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0022112008000852

This paper numerically investigates the instability of Poiseuille flow in a fluid overlying a porous medium saturated with the same fluid. A three-layer configuration is adopted. Namely, a Newtonian fluid overlying a Brinkman porous transition layer,... Read More about Poiseuille flow in a fluid overlying a porous medium.

Resonant porous penetrative convection (2004)
Journal Article

An interesting convection situation is studied in a porous medium. We show that there is a range in which the convection may switch from the lower part of the layer to being predominantly in the upper part of the layer. Both linear instability and no...
