Realistic rotating convection in a DNA suspension

Abstract:

In this work we report theoretical and numerical results on convection in a viscoelastic binary mixture under rotation for realistic rigid-rigid boundary conditions. We focus our analysis in the DNA aqueous suspensions. Instability thresholds for oscillatory convection are calculated. Finally, we analyze the stabilizing effect for the onset of convection. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
