Selected Topics in Aerospace Engineering; An Introduction to Hydrodynamic Stability
Credits:
3
Grad Meth:
Reg, Aud
Prerequisite: ENAE673 or permission of instructor.
Key concepts of hydrodynamic stability theory: methods of linear stability, normal modes, energy theory of stability, absolute/convective instability, nonlinear perturbation, bifurcation theory, and transition to turbulence. Different instabilities occurring in fluid flows, e.g., Kelvin-Helmholtz, Rayleigh-Taylor, Rayleigh-Bernard, and centrifugal instabilities.
