Abstract
We present a generalized energy functional E for plane parallel shear flows which provides conditional nonlinear stability for Reynolds numbers Re below some value Re E depending on the shear profile. In the case of the experimentally important profiles, viz. combinations of laminar Couette and Poiseuille flow, Re E is shown to be at least 174.
