Abstract

In this work we report theoretical and numerical results on convection in a viscoelastic binary mixture under rotation. Instability thresholds for stationary convection are calculated. We obtain explicit expressions of convective thresholds in terms of the control parameters of the system for oscillatory convection. Finally, we analyze the stabilizing effect of rotation on instability thresholds for aqueous DNA suspensions.
