متن کاملVariational necessary and sufficient stability conditions for inviscid shear flow.
A necessary and sufficient condition for linear stability of inviscid parallel shear flow is formulated by developing a novel variational principle, where the velocity profile is assumed to be monotonic and analytic. It is shown that unstable eigenvalues of Rayleigh's equation (which is a non-self-adjoint eigenvalue problem) can be associated with positive eigenvalues of a certain self-adjoint ...
متن کاملOn the Stability of Stratified Flows with a Horizontal Shear
Howard’s semi-circle theorem [4] states that the complex wavespeed for an unstable mode must fall within the range of values of the base flow, a conclusion that has proven to be of fundamental importance for a wide variety of flow phenomena. Howard’s original proof applies to a two-dimensional basic state, u(z), where z is the vertical distance and u is the horizontal velocity, with two dimensi...
متن کاملOn stably stratified homogeneous shear flows subjected to rotation
Theoretical aspects of modeling stratified turbulent flows subjected to rotation are considered. The structural equilibrium behavior of second-moment closure (SMC) models is explored, guided by bifurcation analysis. It is shown that the ability of the models to predict a critical gradient Richardson number in the absence of system rotation Ri g ≈ 0.25 is largely dependent on the model for the p...
متن کاملAsymptotic Stability of Unsteady Inviscid Stratified Flows
The stability of modulated atmospheric flows is analyzed. The equations govern. ing the disturbance motion are solved by Galerkin expansions with time-dependent coefficients. Asymptotic stability bounds are then established by constructing Liapuno"\ functions for the resulting differential systems.
