- Abstract
The boundary roughness effects on nonlinear saturation of Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) in couple-stress fluid have been studied using numerical technique on the basis of stability of interface between two fluids of the system. The resulting fourth order ordinary nonlinear differential equation is solved using Adams-Bashforth predictor and Adams-Moulton corrector techniques numerically. The various surface roughness effects and surface tension effects on nonlinear saturation of RTI of two superposed couple-stress fluid and fluid saturated porous media are well investigated. At the interface, the surface tension acts and finally stability of the problem is discussed in detail.
