โœฆ Synopsis


The effect of vertical vibration on the stability of a dilute suspension of negatively geotactic microorganisms in a fluid layer of finite depth is investigated. For the case of high-frequency vibration, solutions of governing equations are decomposed into two components: one which varies slowly with time and a second which varies rapidly with time. An averaging method is utilized to derive the equations describing the mean flow. Linear stability analysis is used to investigate stability of the obtained averaged equations.

The effect of high-frequency translational harmonic vibrations on the onset of thermocapillary convection in a horizontal liquid layer, bounded above by a free surface and below by a solid wall, is investigated by averaging the convection equations. It is shown that longitudinal vibrations have no e
