Stability and Transition in Shear Flows /

Show other versions (1)

This book is a detailed look at some of the more modern issues of hydrodynamic stability, including transient growth, eigenvalue spectra, secondary instability. Analytical results and numerical simulations, linear and (selected) nonlinear stability methods will be presented. By including classical r...
