Rotating convection in cylindrical containers is a canonical problem in fluid dynamics, in
which a variety of simplifying assumptions have been used in order to allow for low …

Rotating convection is analysed numerically in a cylinder of aspect ratio one, for Prandtl
number about 7. Traditionally, the problem has been studied within the Boussinesq …

Centrifugal buoyancy forces in a container rotating about an axis aligned with gravity lead to
mean flows that interact with rotating convection. A model of the interactions between these …

Convection rolls in a rotating layer can become unstable to the Küppers–Lortz instability.
When the horizontal boundaries are stress free and the Prandtl number is finite, this …

Rayleigh–Bénard convection in a finite rotating cylinder of moderate aspect ratio (radius four
times the depth) is investigated numerically for a fluid of Prandtl number equal to 7 …

In Coriolis-centrifugal convection (C 3), buoyancy effects not only drive convective motions
in the vertical direction due to the gravitational acceleration but also in the radial direction …

Many flows in nature and technology are driven by buoyant convection and subsequently
modulated by rotation. Typical and highly relevant examples are found in the large-scale …

A numerical study of the onset of thermal convection in a rotating circular cylinder of radius-
to-depth ratio equal to four is considered in a regime dominated by the Coriolis force where …

An asymptotic theory of marginal thermal convection in rotating systems is constructed for
the limit of rapid rotation. Many self-gravitating astronomical bodies, including the major …

This study offers an explanation of the recently observed effect of destabilization of free
convective flows by weak rotation. After studying several models where flows are driven by …
