Abstract

Publisher Summary In the beginning, analyzing the fundamental theory of inertial instability of plane parallel flow of inviscid fluid, the chapter discusses certain integral issues such as eigenvalue problem for inertial modes, general stability characteristics of plane parallel flow, the initial-value problem and the stability of nonparallel flow, and stability characteristics of various basic flows. In the next phase, it discusses the waves and stability of plane parallel flow of inviscid fluid under the actions of various force fields. The heuristic theory of instability is described in detail in the chapter, along with its dimensional analysis and physical arguments. The general stability characteristics and stability characteristics of various basic flows related to the instability of an incompressible fluid of variable density are also analyzed in the chapter.
