The uniform shear flow for the rarefied gas is governed by the time-dependent spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with a linear shear force. The main feature of such flow is that the temperature may increase in time due to the shearing…

We develop a general transfer-matrix formalism for determining the growth rate of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in a fluid system with spatially varying density and viscosity. We use this formalism to analytically and numerically treat…

We derive here a new stability criterion for two-fluid interfaces. This criterion ensures the existence of "stable" local solutions that do no break down too fast due to Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities. It can be seen both as a two-fluid…

Howard's conjecture, which states that in the linear instability problem of inviscid heterogeneous parallel shear flow growth rate of an arbitrary unstable wave must approach zero as the wave length decreases to zero, is established in a…

In this paper, the stability of inviscid parallel flow between two parallel walls is studied. Firstly, it is obtained that the profile of the base flow for this classical problem is a uniform flow. Secondly, it is shown that the solution of…

This is the second of two articles on the study of a particle system model that exhibits a Turing instability type effect. About the hydrodynamic quations obtained in \cite{CSL17a}, we find conditions under which Turing instability occurs…

The helical magnetorotational instability of the magnetized Taylor-Couette flow is studied numerically in a finite cylinder. A distant upstream insulating boundary is shown to stabilize the convective instability entirely while reducing the…

We study linear theory of the magnetized Rayleigh-Taylor instability in a system consisting of ions and neutrals. Both components are affected by a uniform vertical gravitational field. We consider ions and neutrals as two separate fluid…

The Darrieus--Landau instability of premixed flames propagating in a narrow Hele-Shaw channel in the presence of a strong shear flow is investigated, incorporating also the Rayleigh--Taylor and diffusive-thermal instabilities. The flow…

Although the critical Reynolds number for linear instability of the laminar flow in a straight pipe is infinite, we show that it is finite for a divergent pipe, and approaches infinity as the inverse of the divergence angle. The velocity…

We consider the dynamics of rotationally supported thin galactic disc composed of stars and gas under the influence of external tidal field and derive the coupled differential equations governing the evolution of instabilities. Further…

The mechanism describing the recently developed notion of kernel gravity waves (KGWs) is reviewed and such structures are employed to interpret the unstable dynamics of an example stratified plane parallel shear flow. This flow has constant…

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…

The buoyancy-driven boundary-layer flow that develops over a semi-infinite inclined hot plate is known to become unstable at a finite distance from the leading edge, characterized by a critical value of the Grashof number Gr based on the…

The transition to turbulence in Rayleigh-Benard convection with phase changes and the resulting convective patterns are studied in a three-dimensional Galerkin model. Our study is focused to the conditionally unstable regime of moist…

The stability of a flow of an electrically conducting, incompressible fluid in a channel with an imposed uniform wall-normal magnetic field and electrically insulating walls is studied using linear stability analysis and direct numerical…

A linear stability analysis of the hydrodynamic equations with respect to the homogeneous cooling state is performed to study the conditions for stability of a suspension of solid particles immersed in a viscous gas. The dissipation in such…

This paper reviews the essential physics of gravitational instability in a Robertson-Walker background spacetime. Three approaches are presented in a pedagogical manner, based on (1) the Eulerian fluid equations, (2) the Lagrangian…

We present a framework based on the generalized lattice-Boltzmann equation using multiple relaxation times with forcing term for eddy capturing simulation of wall bounded turbulent flows. Due to its flexibility in using disparate relaxation…

Shear flows have an important impact on the dynamics in an assortment of different astrophysical objects including accreditation discs and stellar interiors. Investigating shear flow instabilities in a polytropic atmosphere provides a…
