A study of convection and dynamo in rotating fluid systems

Convection in a Boussinesq fluid confined by a annular channel fast rotating about a vertical axis and uniformly heated from below, is one of our concerns in this thesis. An assumption that the channel has a sufficiently large radius in comparison with its gap-width is employed, so that the curvatur...
