Long wavelength instability for uniform shear flow.
Uniform shear flow is a prototype non-equilibrium state admitting detailed study at both the macroscopic and microscopic levels via theory and computer simulation. It is shown that the hydrodynamic equations for this state have a long wavelength instability. This result is obtained first from the NavierStokes equations and shown to apply at both low and high densities. Next, higher order rheolo...
متن کاملEffect of the capillary meniscus height on the instability of large Prandtl number Czochralski melt flow
Effect of the capillary meniscus on the instability of large Prandtl number Czochralski melt flow is studied experimentally. The measurements are conducted in two experimental facilities by two independent non-intrusive optical techniques. The quantitative results are presented as dependencies of the critical Grashof number (critical temperature difference) on the meniscus height for different ...

متن کاملThe small magnetic Prandtl number approximation suppresses magnetorotational instability
Axisymmetric stability of viscous resistive magnetized Couette flow is re-examined, with emphasis on flows that would be hydrodynamically stable according Rayleigh’s criterion: opposing gradients of angular velocity and specific angular momentum. In this regime, magnetorotational instability (MRI) may occur. The governing system in cylindrical coordinates is of tenth order. It is proved, by met...
متن کاملConvective instability of strained layer step-flow
We examine an epitaxial crystal growth model in the context of absolute and convective instabilities and show that a strain-induced step bunching instability can be convective. Using analytic stability theory and numerical simulations, we study the response of the crystal surface to an inhomogeneous deposition flux that launches impulsive and time-periodic perturbations to a uniform array of st...
