Elements of resolvent methods in fluid mechanics: notes for an introductory short course

Fluid Dynamics 2019-09-11 v1

Abstract

This is a collection of notes for part of a short course on modal methods in fluid mechanics held at DAMTP, University of Cambridge, in the summer of 2019. These notes introduce the reader to resolvent analysis as it is currently used in fluid mechanics. They are aimed at the average beginning PhD student, and will serve as a base from which to explore the literature.
