Necessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that all nontrivial solutions are oscillatory are established by using a new nonlinear integral inequality. Our results substantially extend and improve previous results known in the literature.展开更多

Both methods showed the same calculation results that the critical Rayleigh number Ra _ cr decreased monotonically with increase in the amplitude b of the sine-function,however,the critical wave number k _ cr did not show much difference with the amplitude b of the sine-function while ψ =π/2,but exponentially increased while ψ =π.展开更多
