Mechanisms of instability in Rayleigh-Bénard convection
In many systems, instabilities can lead to time-dependent behavior, and instabilities can act as mechanisms for sustained chaos; an understanding of the dynamical modes governing instability is thus essential for prediction and/or control in such systems. In this thesis work, we have developed an ap...
