The instability of the plane interface between two viscoelastic (Maxwellian) superposed fluids in porous medium in the presence of uniform rotation and variable magnetic field is considered. The magnetic field, the viscosity and the density are assumed to be exponentially varying. For stable density stratification, the system is found to be stable for disturbances of all wave numbers. The magnetic field stabilizes the potentially unstable stratification for small wave-length perturbations which are otherwise unstable. The long wave-length perturbations remain unstable and are not stabilized by magnetic field. Rotation does not affect the stability or instability, as such, of stratification.Keywords

The effect of uniform vertical magnetic field and uniform vertical rotation on double-diffusive convection in a layer of an electrically conducting couple-stress fluid heated and soluted from below is considered. For the case of stationary convection, it is clear that stable solute gradient, compressibility, rotation and magnetic field postpone the onset of the convection in compressible couple-stress fluid heated from below in the presence of a magnetic field. Couple-stress parameter has duel character in presence of rotation. While in absence of rotation Couple-Stress parameter has postpones the onset of convection only. Graphs have been plotted by giving numerical values to the parameters to depict the stability characteristics. Further, the solute gradient, magnetic field, rotation is found to introduce oscillatory modes in the systems that were non-existent in their absence. The sufficient conditions for the non-existence of overstability have found, the violation of which does not necessarily imply the occurrence of overstability.Keywords

A layer of compressible, couple-stress fluid permeated with suspended particles (fine dust), heated and soluted from below is considered. For the case of stationary convection; the compressibility, couple-stress and stable solute gradient postpone the set of convection where as the suspended particles hasten the onset of convection. The graphs have been plotted by giving numerical values to the parameters to depict the stability characteristics. The stable solute gradient is found to introduce the overstability modes in the system, which ware non-existing, in its absence. The case of overstability is also considered wherein the sufficient conditions for non-existence of overstability are obtained.
