The Couette-Taylor instability occurs in a viscous fluid confined between two coaxial rotating cylinders. When the Taylor number surpasses a critical value, the stable Couette flow destabilizes, giving way to steady Taylor vortices. As the…
We study the stability of the Couette-Taylor flow between porous cylinders with radial throughflow. It had been shown earlier that this flow can be unstable with respect to non-axisymmetric (azimuthal or helical) waves provided that the…
We analyze the stability of a cylindrical Couette flow under the imposition of a weak axial flow in case of a very short cylinder with a narrow annulus gap. We consider an incompressible viscous fluid which is contained in the narrow gap…
In this paper, we study the nonlinear asymptotic stability of Couette flow for the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation with small viscosity $\nu>0$ in $\mathbb{T}\times\mathbb{R}$. It's generally known the nonlinear asymptotic stability…
It is known that in a hydrodynamic Taylor-Couette system uniform rotation or a rotation law with positive shear ('super-rotation') are linearly stable. It is also known that a conducting fluid under the presence of a sufficiently strong…
The transition to turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow often occurs via a sequence of supercritical bifurcations to progressively more complex, yet stable, flows. We describe a subcritical laminar-turbulent transition in the counter-rotating…
The stability of density-stratified viscous Taylor-Couette flows is considered using the Boussinesq approximation but without any use of the short-wave approximation. The flows which are unstable after the Rayleigh criterion (\hat \mu<\hat…
Applying a sufficiently rapid start-stop to the outer cylinder of the Couette-Taylor system, structures approximately aligned with the axis were recorded in the classic work of Coles (1965). These short-lived rolls are oriented…
We study the stationary Navier--Stokes equations in the region between two rotating concentric cylinders. We first prove that, under the small Reynolds number, if the fluid is axisymmetric and if its velocity is sufficiently small in the…
In this paper, we obtain the optimal instability threshold of the Couette flow for Navier-Stokes equations with small viscosity $\nu>0$, when the perturbations are in the critical spaces $H^1_xL_y^2$. More precisely, we introduce a new…
We consider the nonaxisymmetric modes of instability present in Taylor-Couette flow under the application of helical magnetic fields, mainly for magnetic Prandtl numbers close to the inductionless limit, and conduct a full examination of…
We investigate the Couette-Taylor problem for a steady incompressible viscous fluid in a 3D cylindrical annulus, where one of the two cylinders is still, under both Dirichlet and boundary conditions involving the vorticity that naturally…
An analytical approach is carried out that provides an inviscid stability criterion for the strato-rotational instability (in short SRI) occurring in a Taylor-Couette system. The control parameters of the problem are the rotation ratio…
The nonaxisymmetric azimuthal magnetorotational instability is studied for hydromagnetic Taylor-Couette flows between cylinders of finite electrical conductivity. We find that the magnetic Prandtl number Pm determines whether perfectly…
The possibility that the magnetic shear-flow instability (MRI, Balbus-Hawley instability) might give rise to turbulence in a cylindric Couette flow is investigated through numerical simulations. The study is linear and the fluid flow is…
Nonlinear evolution of a continuous spectrum of unstable waves near the first bifurcation point in circular Couette flow has been investigated. The disturbance is represented by a Fourier integral over all possible axial wavenumbers, and an…
In this paper, we study the nonlinear asymptotic stability of the Couette flow in the stably stratified regime, namely the Richardson number $\gamma^2>\frac{1}{4}$. Precisely, we prove that if the initial perturbation…
The instability of a supercritical Taylor-Couette flow of a conducting fluid with resting outer cylinder under the influence of a uniform axial electric current is investigated for magnetic Prandtl number Pm=1. In the linear theory the…
We prove a stability threshold theorem for 2D Navier-Stokes on three unbounded domains: the whole plane $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}$, the half plane $\mathbb{R} \times [0,\infty)$ with Navier boundary conditions, and the infinite channel…
The relation between rotating plane Couette and Taylor-Couette flows is clarified. The identity of their linear stability limits is explained by considering the effect of the Coriolis force in the rotating frame. Experimental data are used…
