Abstract

Patterns of Taylor spirals observed in the counter-rotating Couette-Taylor system are described by complex Ginzburg-Landau equations (CGLE) and have been investigated using spatiotemporal diagrams and complex demodulation technique. We have determined the real coefficients of the CGLE and their variations versus the control parameters, i.e., the rotation frequency of cylinders.
