Primes

• Instability
  • Physics and fluid mechanics Rayleigh-Taylor instability (stratified fluids with density inversion), first analyzed rigorously by Rayleigh in 1883

    This sourceRigorously analyzes Rayleigh-Taylor instability in stratified fluids; derives stability criteria for density-inverted layers; establishes the basis for understanding gravitational instability in fluids.
