The field of hydrodynamic stability has a long history, going back to Rey nolds and Lord Rayleigh in the late 19th century. Because of its central role in many research efforts involving fluid flow, stability theory has grown into a mature discipline, firmly based on a large body of knowledge and a vast body of literature. The sheer size of this field has made it difficult for young researchers to access this exciting area of fluid dynamics. For this reason, writing a book on the subject of hydrodynamic stability theory and transition is a daunting endeavor, especially as any book ... Read more

Reviews for Stability and Transition in Shear Flows (Applied Mathematical Sciences)
From the reviews: SIAM REVIEW "This book presents a modern treatment of stability in shear flows. Stability theory has seen a number of classic treatments over the years…Schmid and Henningson’s book builds on these and offers much new material relevant to stability in shear flows…The MATLAB codes included in the appendix and a discussion of the ...
