On the basis of the linearized fluid forces acting on the rotor obtained directly by using the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, the stability of symmetrical rotors with a cylindrical chamber partially filled with a viscous incompressible fluid is investigated in this paper. The effects of the parameters of rotor system, such as external damping ratio, fluid fill ratio, Reynolds number and mass ratio, on the unstable regions are analyzed. It is shown that for the stability analysis of fluid filled rotor systems with external damping, the effect of the fluid viscosity on the stability should be considered. When the fluid viscosity is included, the adding external damping will make the system more stable and two unstable regions may exist even if rotors are isotropic in some casIs.

We examine the behaviour of a compound capillary jet from the spatio-temporal linear stability analysis of the Navier–Stokes equations. We map the jetting–dripping transition in the parameter space by calculating the Weber numbers for which the convective/absolute instability transition occurs. If the remaining dimensionless parameters are set, there are two critical Weber numbers that verify Brigg's pinch criterion. The region of absolute (convective) instability corresponds to Weber numbers smaller (larger) than the highest value of those two Weber numbers. The stability map is affected significantly by the presence of the outer interface, especially for compound jets with highly viscous cores, in which the outer interface may play an important role even though it is located very far from the core. Full numerical simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations confirm the predictions of the stability analysis.

Based on the earlier developed mathematical model of the complex flow due to the double rotations in two perpendicular directions, the stability analysis is performed in the paper. The Navier-Stokes equations are derived in the coordinate system rotating around the two perpendicular different axes, the vertical one of them is arranged on some distance from the other axis of rotation, the horizontal axis is directed along the tangential line to the circle of the vertical rotation. The two centrifugal and Coriolis forces create the unique features in high oscillating flow, with localities of the stretched liquid, due to their action varying by the circumferential cylindrical coordinate in the channel flow. Stability analysis for the complex rotational flow under double rotations creating strongly varying mass forces and stretching of the liquid is considered at first

The motion of a viscous incompressible liquid between two parallel disks, moving towards each other or in opposite directions, is considered. The description of possible conditions of motion is based on the exact solution of the Navier–Stokes equations. Both stationary and transient cases have been considered. The stability of the motion is analysed for different initial perturbations. Different types of stability were found according to whether the disks moved towards or away from each other.

The present paper is devoted to the formation of sand patterns by laminar flows. It focuses on the rhomboid beach pattern, formed during the backswash. A recent bedload transport model, based on a moving-grains balance, is generalized in three dimensions for viscous flows. The water flow is modelled by the full incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with a free surface. A linear stability analysis then shows the simultaneous existence of two distinct instabilities, namely ripples and bars. The comparison of the bar instability characteristics with laboratory rhomboid patterns indicates that the latter could result from the nonlinear evolution of unstable bars. This result, together with the sensibility of the stability analysis with respect to the parameters of the transport law, suggests that the rhomboid pattern could help improving sediment transport models, so critical to geomorphologists.
