The stability of a three-dimensional, incompressible, viscous flow through a finite-length duct is studied. A divergence-free basis technique is used to formulate the weak form of the problem. A SUPG (streamingline upwind Petrov-Galerkin)…
We study the stability of Couette flow in the 3d Navier-Stokes equations with rotation, as given by the Coriolis force. Hereby, the nature of linearized dynamics near Couette flow depends crucially on the force balance between background…
