چکیده
0031-9007= We consider a large class of nonlinear diffusive systems with nonlocal coupling. By using a nonperturbative analytical approach we are able to determine the convective and absolute instabilities of all the uniform states of these systems. We find a huge window of convective instability that should provide a great opportunity to study experimentally and theoretically noise sustained patterns.

Convective instability induced by two-points nonlocality.
We consider diffusive nonlinear systems with nonlocal two-points coupling, generally induced by misalignment in optical feedback. We expand the stability analysis in F. Papoff and R. Zambrini [Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 243903 (2005)] to determine convective and absolute thresholds. Nonlocality leads to different effects in comparison to well-known problems with drift, as the existence of opposite ph...
متن کاملNonlocal feedback in nonlinear systems
A shifted or misaligned feedback loop gives rise to a two-point nonlocality that is the spatial analog of a temporal delay. Important consequences of this nonlocal coupling have been found both in diffusive and in diffractive systems, and include convective instabilities, independent tuning of phase and group velocities, as well as amplification, chirping and even splitting of localized perturb...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Double- Diffusive Mixed Convective Flow in a Lid-Driven Enclosure Filled with Al2O3-Water Nanofluid
Double-diffusive mixed convection in a lid-driven square enclosure filled with Al2O3-water is numerically investigated. Two-dimensional nonlinear governing equations are discretized using the control volume method and hybrid scheme. The equations are solved using SIMPLER algorithm. The results are displayed in the form of streamlines, isotherms, and iso-concentrations when the Richardson number...
متن کاملLarge Plasma Pressure Perturbations and Radial Convective Transport in a Tokamak
Strongly localized plasma structures with large pressure inhomogeneities (such as plasma blobs in the scrape-offlayer (SOL)/shadow regions, pellet clouds, Edge Localized Modes (ELMs)) observed in the tokamaks, stellarators and linear plasma devices. Experimental studies of these phenomena reveal striking similarities including more convective rather than diffusive radial plasma transport. We su...
متن کاملInteraction between buoyancy and diffusion-driven instabilities of propagating autocatalytic reaction fronts. II. Nonlinear simulations.
The nonlinear dynamics resulting from the interplay between diffusive and buoyancy-driven Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instabilities of autocatalytic traveling fronts are analyzed numerically for fronts ascending or descending in the gravity field and for various values of the relevant parameters, the Rayleigh numbers R(a) and R(b) of the reactant A and autocatalytic product B, respectively, and the ra...
