摘要
The singular behavior of the Horton–Rogers–Lapwood problem when a Newtonian fluid is replaced by a standard power-law fluid is investigated further. Using weakly nonlinear stability theory, an estimate is made of the amplitude of convection at which the convection is initiated (in the case of a fluid with index n > 1) or levels off (in the case of a fluid with n < 1).
