Kelvin–Helmholtz Shear Instability
Two parallel flows with slip U: Fourier-mode growth rate sketch and animated interface billows (linear toy model).
Mantle Convection Cell (Toy)
High-Prandtl-number mantle convection cartoon: Rayleigh-number vigor, thermal boundary layers, hot upwelling, and a cold subducting slab in one viscous cell.
SIR Vaccination Threshold
Herd-immunity threshold simulator: R_eff = R0(1-v), SIR outbreak curves, peak infected, and final size vs vaccine coverage.
Rossby Waves on a Beta-Plane
Linear planetary wave ψ = A cos(kx+ly−ωt) with ω = −βk/(k²+l²+Rd⁻²): streamfunction bands and geostrophic arrows show westward phase propagation.
Geomagnetic Reversals (Toy Dynamo)
Low-order α–Ω cartoon: axial dipole B(t) from coupled amplitudes with symmetry breaking — stochastic flips, not MHD.
Darcy Flow & Penetration Depth
1D head h(z,t): ∂h/∂t = K ∂²h/∂z²; recharge at surface, fixed head at depth — relaxation time and diffusion length.
