Abstract
Thomas andWalters (9, 2, 3) have recently shown that for a certain elastico-viscous liquid, the presence of elasticity has a destabilizing effect on the flow. The problem is reconsidered in the present paper for another idealized elastico-viscous liquid which is as simple as that considered byThomas andWalters. It is shown that in this case, the presence of elasticity has a stabilizing influence. It is concluded that a stability experiment would be a useful addition to the experiments usually set up to characterise elastico-viscous liquids.
