Verifying nonlinear stability of a laminar fluid flow against all perturbations is a central challenge in fluid dynamics. Past results rely on monotonic decrease of a perturbation energy or a similar quadratic generalized energy. None show…

This paper provides a pedagogical introduction to the classical nonlinear stability analysis of the plane Poiseuille and Couette flows. The whole procedure is kept as simple as possible by presenting all the logical steps involved in the…

The dynamics of transitional flows are governed by an interplay between the non-normal linear dynamics and quadratic nonlinearity in the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. In this work, we propose a framework for nonlinear stability…

The normal-mode analysis of the Reynolds-Orr energy equation governing the stability of viscous motion for general three-dimensional disturbances has been revisited. The energy equation has been solved as an unconstrained minimization…

We propose a novel stability criterion for incompressible shear flows by combining input-output analysis and the small-gain theorem. The criterion yields an explicit threshold on the magnitude of velocity perturbations about a given base…

In this paper, the physics of flow instability and turbulent transition in shear flows is studied by analyzing the energy variation of fluid particles under the interaction of base flow with a disturbance. For the first time, a model…

The plane Poiseuille flow is one of the elementary flow configurations. Although its laminar-turbulent transition mechanism is investigated intensively in the last century, the significant difference in the critical Reynolds number between…

Energy theory for incompressible Newtonian fluids is, in many cases, capable of producing strong absolute stability criteria for steady flows. In those fluids the kinetic energy naturally defines a norm in which perturbations decay…

Critical Reynolds numbers for the monotone exponential energy stability of Couette and Poiseuille plane flows were obtained by Orr 1907 \cite{Orr1907} in a famous paper, and by Joseph 1966 \cite{Joseph1966}, Joseph and Carmi 1969…

This paper introduces a new method for proving global stability of fluid flows through the construction of Lyapunov functionals. For finite dimensional approximations of fluid systems, we show how one can exploit recently developed…

We analyze the hydrodynamic stability of force-driven parallel shear flows in nonequilibrium molecular simulations with three-dimensional periodic boundary conditions. We show that flows simulated in this way can be linearly unstable, and…

A method to bound the maximum energy perturbation for which regional stability of transitional fluid flow models can be guaranteed is introduced. The proposed method exploits the fact that the fluid model's nonlinearities are both lossless…

The energy gradient theory was proposed in our previous studies. The mechanism of flow instability is very different in shear driven flows from pressure driven flows. In present paper, the relationship for the energy variation, work done,…

In this note, which is of general stability theory interest, we discuss some of the key assertions usually stated in the context of the transition to turbulence problem. In particular, the two main points made here in the setting of the…

We investigate the nonlinear dynamics of turbulent shear flows, with and without rotation, in the context of a simple but physically motivated closure of the equation governing the evolution of the Reynolds stress tensor. We show that the…

For low enough flow rates, turbulent channel flow displays spatial modulations of large wavelengths. This phenomenon has recently been interpreted as a linear instability of the turbulent flow. We question here the ability of linear…

This paper is on the effect of nonlinearity in the equations for propagation of disturbances on transition in the class of Spiral Poiseuille Flows. The problem is approached from the fundamental point of view of following the growth of…

The onset of turbulence in laminar flow of viscous fluids is shown to be a consequence of the limited capacity of the fluid to withstand shear stress. This fact is exploited to predict the flow velocity at which laminar flow becomes…

We consider the evolution of arbitrarily large perturbations of a prescribed pure hydrodynamical flow of an electrically conducting fluid. We study whether the flow perturbations as well as the generated magnetic fields decay or grow with…

This work provides new lower bounds on the global (nonlinear) stability limit of pressure-driven two-dimensional plane Poiseuille flow, improving on the energy stability limit, $Re_E$, originally computed by Orr in 1907. Using a computer we…
