Shear Instabilities in Granular Flows down on Inclined Plane

Hua-Shu Dou, Boo Cheong Khoo, Nhan Phan-Thien

Instabilities at interface of two stream granular flows have been reported in recent experiment [1] that breaking waves can form at the interface between two streams of identical g…

Stability of Rotating Viscous and Inviscid flows

Hua-Shu Dou

Flow instability and turbulent transition can be well explained using a new proposed theory--Energy gradient theory [1]. In this theory, the stability of a flow depends on the rela…

Viscous Flow Instability of Inflectional Velocity Profile

Hua-Shu Dou

Rayleigh showed that inviscid flow is unstable if the velocity profile has an inflection point in parallel flows. However, whether viscous flows is unstable or not is still not pro…

On the Disturbance Equation of Flow Instability

Hua-Shu Dou

In this note, we propose a new idea by analyzing the basic disturbance equations, and give starting equations for understanding the instability phenomena of laminar flows and trans…

Threshold amplitudes for transition to turbulence in a pipe

Hua-Shu Dou, Boo Cheong Khoo, Khoon Seng Yeo

Threshold amplitude of disturbance for transition to turbulence in a pipe Poiseuille flow is investigated. Based on the energy gradient theory, we argued that the transition to tur…

Laws of Energy Gradient for Instabilities

Hua-Shu Dou

Transition to turbulence is due to the instability of a laminar flow subject to a disturbance. This complicated problem can be explained using a new proposed energy gradient theory…
