Generalised nonlinear stability of stratified shear flows: adjoint-based optimisation, Koopman modes, and reduced models
Eaves, Thomas Scott (Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of CambridgeUniversity of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsSt John's College, 2016-10-04)In this thesis I investigate a number of problems in the nonlinear stability of density stratified plane Couette flow. I begin by describing the history of transient growth phenomena, and in particular the recent application ...
