Abstract
Abstract Instability of the plane interface between two viscoelastic (Maxwellian) superposed conducting fluids in the presence of suspended particles and variable horizontal magnetic field in porous medium is studied. The cases of two fluids of uniform densities, viscosities, magnetic fields, and suspended particles number densities separated by a horizontal boundary; and of exponentially varying density, viscosity, suspended particles number density, and magnetic field are considered. It is found that the stability criterion is independent of the effects of viscoelasticity, medium porosity, and suspended particles but is dependent on the orientation and magnitude of the magnetic field. The magnetic field succeeds in stabilizing a certain range of wavenumbers which were unstable in the absence of the magnetic field. The system is found to be stable for potentially stable configuration/stratifications. The growth rates are found to increase (for certain wavenumbers) and decrease (for other wavenumbers) wit...
