Thermal Convection - Patterns, Stages of Evolution and StabilityBehavior provides the reader with an ensemble picture of thesubject, illustrating the state-of-the-art and providing theresearchers from universities and industry with a basis on whichthey are able to estimate the possible impact of a variety ofparameters. Unlike earlier books on the subject, the heavymathematical background underlying and governing the behaviorsillustrated in the text are kept to a minimum.
The text clarifies some still unresolved controversiespertaining to the physical nature of the dominating driving forceresponsible for asymmetric/oscillatory convection in variousnatural phenomena and/or technologically important processes andcan help researchers in elaborating and validating new, morecomplex models, in accelerating the current trend towardspredictable and reproducible natural phenomena and in establishingan adequate scientific foundation to industrial processes.
Thermal Convection - Patterns, Stages of Evolution andStability Behavior is intended as a useful reference guide forspecialists in disciplines such as the metallurgy and foundry fieldand researchers and scientists who are now coordinating theirefforts to improve the quality of semiconductor or macromolecularcrystals. The text may also be of use to organic chemists andmaterials scientists, atmosphere and planetary physicists, as wellas an advanced level text for students taking part in courses onthe physics of fluids, fluid mechanics, the behavior and evolutionof non-linear systems, environmental phenomena and materialsengineering.
