Abstract
An exact solution is obtained for the equations of vibrogravitational convection in an arbitrarily oriented plane fluid layer with a longitudinal component of the temperature gradient. It is shown that in the absence of a static field inclined vibration leads to the development of plane-parallel convective flow. On the other hand, gravitational plane-parallel convective flow can always be suppressed by an appropriate choice of the direction and amplitude of vibration.
