Two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) instabilities in the wake of a circular
cylinder placed near to a moving wall are investigated using direct numerical simulation …

This study investigates the inviscid, linear spatio-temporal stability of heated, compressible,
and incompressible coaxial jet flows. The influence of the temperature ratio and the velocity …

Both surface tension and buoyancy force in stable stratification act to restore perturbed
interfaces back to their initial positions. Hence, both are intuitively considered as stabilizing …

A counterintuitive destabilizing effect of the surface tension in planar wakes has been
observed by Tammisola et al.[“Effect of surface tension on global modes of confined wake …

The coexistence of density stratification and surface tension alters the dynamic behaviors of
two-phase immiscible wake and jet flows in complex interfacial instability modes. Building …

Effects of the baroclinic torque on wave propagation normally neglected under the
Boussinesq approximation is investigated here, with a special focus on the associated …

We consider the linear stability of evaporating thin films falling down an inclined plate. The
one sided-model presented first by “Burelbach, JP, Bankoff, SG, Davis, SH, 1988, Nonlinear …

The stability of a mixing layer made up of two miscible fluids, with a viscosity-stratified layer
between them, is studied. The two fluids are of the same density. It is shown that unlike other …

We study the spatiotemporal evolution of an evaporating liquid film sheared by a gas
considering both inertial and thermal instabilities, the latter arising from a combination of …

We revisit the inviscid spatio-temporal stability properties of mixing layers. Earlier
comparisons of the dispersion relations pertaining to the broken line model and the …
