Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We consider the stability of Couette flow when travelling vibrations perturb one boundary. It is demonstrated that if the bounding surface profile takes the form of sinusoidal waves, then the otherwise stable shear flow becomes unstable for appropriately chosen values of vibration amplitude, phase speed and wavenumber. When instability arises, it is driven by centrifugal forces that are created by wave-imposed changes in the direction of fluid movement. Only subcritical waves, defined as vibrations with phase speed smaller than the maximum flow velocity, cause instability. As the fluid Reynolds number grows, the interval of vibration wavenumbers and phase speeds capable of flow destabilisation is enhanced. A range of parameters is identified for which the vibrations seem to play dual roles: they decrease the flow resistance while simultaneously generating streamwise vortices. This vibration class constitutes an energy-efficient control tool that may potentially intensify the mixing within a flow.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
