Abstract
Linear and weakly nonlinear properties of Rayleigh–Benard convection in rotating fluids are investigated. Linear stability analysis is studied to investigate analytically the effect of Coriolis force on gravity-driven convection for idealised stress-free boundary conditions. We have derived a nonlinear one-dimensional Landau–Ginzburg equation with real coefficients near the onset of stationary convection at the supercritical pitchfork bifurcation. A coupled Landau–Ginzburg type equations with complex coefficients near the onset of oscillatory convection at the supercritical Hopf bifurcation are derived and discussed the stability regions of travelling and standing waves.
