A comprehensive review of spatiotemporal pattern formation in systems driven away from
equilibrium is presented, with emphasis on comparisons between theory and quantitative …

This book describes the research that has been done on the problems of Benard convection-
as well as its modern offspring, the Rayleigh-Benard problem-and Taylor vortices. Benard …

This invaluable book presents a concise but systematic account of the formation of spatial
flow structures in a horizontal fluid layer heated from below. Flows of this type, known as …

The problem of the selection of forms and scales of convective flows in a horizontal layer of
liquid heated from below is studied. The basic types of two-and three-dimensional flows …

A century after Henri Bénard discovered cellular convective structures, thermal convection in
fluid layers still remains a central subject in nonlinear physics. Within this framework, surface …

We present a detailed theoretical study of pattern formation in planar continua with
translational, rotational, and reflection symmetry. The theoretical predictions are tested in …

Spirals, vortices, crystalline lattices, and other attractive patterns are prevalent in Nature.
How do such beautiful patterns appear from the initial chaos? What universal dynamical …

The convective flow in a thin liquid layer with a free surface heated from below is studied
using a combination of accurate experiments with silicone oil (v= 0.1 cm2 s− 1) and high …

Nonlinear, spatially extended structures of convection rolls in horizontal layers of binary
fluids heated from below are investigated in quantitative detail as a function of Rayleigh …

The best known Turing patterns are composed of stripes or simple hexagonal arrangements
of spots. Until recently, Turing patterns with other geometries have been observed only …
