Stability of discontinuous flow at high Reynolds number: Lecture #3
Abstract
This series of lectures will focus on recent developments of the so-called a-contraction theory and its application to the study of discontinuous flow at high Reynolds numbers. We will first introduce the classical framework to study the stability of 1D shocks for compressible flows. Recent multi-D applications will be presented next, both in the context of compressible and incompressible flows.
