The Sun is our nearest star; it is also the most important star that determines life on Earth. A
large variety of phenomena observed on the Sun's surface, with potential impact on Earth, is …

The convective envelopes of solar-type stars and the convective cores of intermediate-and
high-mass stars share boundaries with stable radiative zones. Through a host of processes …

Numerical solutions of partial differential equations enable a broad range of scientific
research. The Dedalus project is a flexible, open-source, parallelized computational …

Most stars host convection zones in which heat is transported directly by fluid motion, but the
behavior of convective boundaries is not well-understood. Here, we present 3D numerical …

We study the evolution of a melting front between the solid and liquid phases of a pure
incompressible material where fluid motions are driven by unstable temperature gradients …

This paper presents the characterization and management of dynamic thermocline
behaviors in a single-medium thermocline (SMT) thermal energy storage tank with the aim of …

A pure and incompressible material is confined between two plates such that it is heated
from below and cooled from above. When its melting temperature is comprised between …

Artificially increasing the luminosity and the thermal diffusivity of a model is a common tactic
adopted in hydrodynamical simulations of stellar convection. In this work, we analyse the …

We study the dynamics associated with the extension of turbulent convective motions from a
convection zone (CZ) into a stable region (RZ) that lies below the latter. For that purpose, we …
