Linear instability of plane Couette and Poiseuille flows

Published 28 May 2025 in physics.flu-dyn | (2506.04242v1)

Abstract: It is shown that linear instability of plane Couette flow can take place even at finite Reynolds numbers which meets with known experimental data. This new result of the linear theory of hydrodynamic stability is obtained only due by abandoning traditional assumption of the longitudinal periodicity of disturbances in the flow direction.
