Weakly nonlinear analysis of Rayleigh–Bénard convection in shear-thinning fluids: nature of the bifurcation and pattern selection

A linear and weakly nonlinear analysis of convection in a layer of shear-thinning fluids between two horizontal plates heated from below is performed. The objective is to examine the effects of the nonlinear variation of the viscosity with the shear rate on the nature of the bifurcation, the planfor...
