Non-modal perturbation growth in a laminar jet: an experimental study

OO Ivanov, DA Ashurov, LR Gareev… - Journal of Fluid …, 2023 - cambridge.org
It is known that, apart from the growth of instability modes, the non-modal (algebraic)
mechanism of linear growth plays an important role in near-wall flows. In unbounded flows …
