The new proposed "energy gradient theory," which physically explains the phenomena of flow instability and turbulent transition in shear flows and has been shown to be valid for parallel flows, is extended to curved flows in this study.…
We consider the 2D, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations near the Couette flow, $\omega^{(NS)} = 1 + \epsilon \omega$, set on the channel $\mathbb{T} \times [-1, 1]$, supplemented with Navier boundary conditions on the perturbation,…
Modal instabilities in a flow through a channel at high Reynolds and Mach numbers are studied for three-dimensional perturbations. In addition to the Tollmien-Schlichting modes, there exist higher modes in a channel flow that do not have a…
The linear stability of rapid granular flow on a slope under gravity against the longitudinal perturbation is analyzed using hydrodynamic equations. It is demonstrated that the steady flow uniform along the flow direction becomes unstable…
We study the nonlinear stability of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations around the Couette shear flow in the channel domain $\mathbb{R}\times[-1,1]$ subject to Navier slip boundary conditions. We establish a quantitative stability…
A modal stability analysis shows that pressure-driven pipe flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid is linearly unstable to axisymmetric perturbations, in stark contrast to its Newtonian counterpart which is linearly stable at all Reynolds numbers. The…
We perform a three-dimensional, short-wavelength stability analysis on the numerically simulated two-dimensional flow past a circular cylinder for Reynolds numbers in the range $50\le Re\le300$; here, $Re = U_{\infty}D/\nu$ with $U_\infty$,…
We consider a modified Ricci flow equation whose stationary solutions include Einstein and Ricci soliton metrics, and we study the linear stability of those solutions relative to the flow. After deriving various criteria that imply linear…
In this thesis we investigate the instabilities of superfluids at finite superflow by means of a hydrodynamical approach. We find that at a finite value of the background superfluid velocity a hydrodynamic collective mode crosses to the…
For inviscid fluid flow in any n-dimensional Riemannian manifold, new conserved vorticity integrals generalizing helicity, enstrophy, and entropy circulation are derived for lower-dimensional surfaces that move along fluid streamlines.…
We consider barotropic instability of shear flows for incompressible fluids with Coriolis effects. For a class of shear flows, we develop a new method to find the sharp stability conditions. We study the flow with Sinus profile in details…
Incompressible flows of an ideal two-dimensional fluid on a closed orientable surface of positive genus are considered. Linear stability of harmonic, i.e. irrotational and incompressible, solutions to the Euler equations is shown using the…
We consider the (in)stability problem of the inviscid 2D Boussinesq equations near a combination of a shear flow $v=(y,0)$ and a stratified temperature $\theta=\alpha y$ with $\alpha>\frac{1}{4}$. We show that for any $\epsilon>0$ there…
The so-called 'direct' approach to separation of variables in linear PDEs is applied to the hydrodynamic stability problem. Calculations are made for the complete linear stability equations in cylindrical coordinates. Several classes of the…
We study stability and input-state analysis of three dimensional (3D) incompressible, viscous flows with invariance in one direction. By taking advantage of this invariance property, we propose a class of Lyapunov and storage functionals.…
Linear stability of stratified two-phase flows in horizontal channels to arbitrary wavenumber disturbances is studied. The problem is reduced to Orr-Sommerfeld equations for the stream function disturbances, defined in each sublayer and…
In this paper, we study the stability for 2-D plane Poiseuille flow $(1-y^2,0)$ in a channel $\mathbb{T}\times (-1,1)$ with Navier-slip boundary condition. We prove that if the initial perturbation for velocity field $u_0$ satisfies that…
This note is devoted to the linear stability of the Couette flow for the non-isentropic compressible Euler equations in a domain $\mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}$. Exploiting the several conservation laws originated from the special structure…
It is shown that linear instability of plane Couette flow can take place even at finite Reynolds numbers which meets with known experimental data. This new result of the linear theory of hydrodynamic stability is obtained only due by…
Landau's criterion for superfluidity is a special case of a broader principle: A moving fluid cannot be stopped by frictional forces if its state of motion is a local minimum of the grand potential. We employ this general thermodynamic…
