We present an analytical model for the Rayleigh-Taylor instability that allows for an
approximate but still very accurate and appealing description of the instability physics in the …

The study of the linear stage of the incompressible Rayleigh-Taylor instability in elastic-
plastic solids is performed by considering thick plates under a constant acceleration that is …

Numerical simulations of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in the interface of two semi-infinite
media have been performed based on the finite element method. Two different interfaces …

We show that the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in elastoplastic solids takes the form of local
perturbations penetrating the material independently of the interface size, in contrast with the …

A previous model for the Rayleigh-Taylor instability [AR Piriz, JJ López Cela, and NA Tahir,
Phys. Rev. E 80, 046305 (2009) PLEEE8 1539-3755 10.1103/PhysRevE. 80.046305] has …

The linear analysis of incompressible Rayleigh–Taylor instability is carried out for thick solid
plates accelerated uniformly by a constant pressure. The instability threshold is found and …

We perform the analysis of the Rayleigh–Taylor instability of thin perfectly elastic solid plates
using the analytical approach recently developed by Piriz and coworkers. The model …

A rotating wheel experimental facility was developed to investigate incompressible Rayleigh-
Taylor instability in elastic-plastic materials. A soft solid (mayonnaise) was chosen as the …

Previous linear stability analyses of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability problem for elastic solids
have been restricted to calculating the cutoff wavelength λ c (zero growth rate) in the limit of …

A physical model has been developed for the linear Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a finite-
thickness elastic slab laying on top of a semi-infinite ideal fluid. The model includes the …
