We investigate here linear stability in a canonical three-dimensional boundary layer generated by the superposition of a spanwise pressure gradient upon an otherwise standard channel flow. As the main result, we introduce a simple…
The non-modal transient growth of perturbations in horizontal and inclined channel flows of two immiscible fluids is studied. 3D perturbations are examined in order to find the optimal perturbations that attain the maximum amplification of…
Laminar shear flows can display large non-modal perturbation growth, often through the lift-up mechansm, and can undergo subcritical transition to turbulence. The process is three-dimensional. Two-dimensional (2D) spanwise-independent…
Spatial optimal responses to both inlet disturbances and harmonic external forcing for hypersonic flows over a blunt cone at nonzero angles of attack are obtained by efficiently solving the direct-adjoint equations with a parabolic…
The three-dimensional temporal instability of rotating boundary layer flows is investigated by computing classical normal modes as well as by evaluating the transient growth of optimal disturbances. The flows examined are the rotating…
The temporal modal and nonmodal growth of three-dimensional perturbations in the boundary-layer flow over an infinite compliant flat wall is considered. Using a wall-normal velocity/wall-normal vorticity formalism, the dynamic boundary…
A direct transient growth analysis for three-dimensional perturbations to flow past a periodic array of T-106/300 low-pressure turbine fan blades is presented. The methodology is based on a singular value decomposition of the flow evolution…
Nonmodal transient growth studies and estimation of optimal perturbations have been made for the compressible plane Couette flow with three-dimensional disturbances. The maximum amplification of perturbation energy over time, $G_{\max}$, is…
Non-normal transient growth of disturbances is considered as an essential prerequisite for subcritical transition in shear flows, i.e. transition to turbulence despite linear stability of the laminar flow. In this work we present numerical…
Laminar flows through pipes driven at steady, pulsatile or oscillatory rates undergo a sub-critical transition to turbulence. We carry out an extensive linear non-modal stability analysis of these flows and show that for sufficiently high…
The fluid dynamics community has found success in explaining both the onset and coherent structure formation in wall-bounded turbulence through examining transient growth and pseudoresonance. Whether similar effects are important in plasmas…
In the present treatise, a stability analysis of the bottom boundary layer under solitary waves based on energy bounds and nonmodal theory is performed. The instability mechanism of this flow consists of a competition between streamwise…
The transition of the flow in a duct of square cross-section is studied. Like in the similar case of the pipe flow, the motion is linearly stable for all Reynolds numbers; this flow is thus a good candidate to investigate the 'bypass' path…
This work shows how the early stages of perturbation growth in a viscosity-stratified flow are different from those in a constant-viscosity flow, and how nonlinearity is a crucial ingredient. We derive the viscosity-varying adjoint…
In astrophysical shear flows, the Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability is generally suppressed by magnetic tension provided a sufficiently strong streamwise magnetic field. This is often used to infer upper (or lower) bounds on field strengths…
This study investigates the minimal seed for laminar-to-turbulent transition in a supersonic boundary layer at $M=3.0$ and $Re=300$ using adjoint-based nonlinear non-modal analysis. While linear theory identifies oblique waves as the…
Pulsatile fluid flows through straight pipes undergo a sudden transition to turbulence that is extremely difficult to predict. The difficulty stems here from the linear Floquet stability of the laminar flow up to large Reynolds numbers,…
Turbulent state of spectrally stable shear flows may be developed and sustained according to the bypass scenario of transition. If it works in non-magnetised boundless and homogeneous quasi-Keplerian flow, transiently growing shearing…
The short time evolution of three dimensional small perturbations is studied. Exhibiting spectral asymptotic stability, thin discs are nonetheless shown to host intensive hydrodynamical activity in the shape of non modal growth of initial…
The aim of this paper is to substantiate the importance of non-normality of shear flow linear operators and its consequence -- the non-modal dynamics of the perturbations -- in the formation of acoustic wave output of time-developing free…
