Characterization of instabilities in the problem of elastic planetary tides
In 1911, A. E. H. Love published a linear elastic model for the tidal deformation of planetary bodies. Using numerical techniques that were unavailable to Love, surprising behaviors of the tidal solution have been found: tides of finite, even substantial, height are possible in the presence of an in...
