Abstract: | Arbitrary three-dimensional perturbations are considered. It is established that as the compliance of the walls increases, oblique waves become the most dangerous, which essentially differentiates the system in question from Poiseuille flow in a rigid channel. The flow stability is analyzed over a broad interval of values of the elasticity parameter overlapping the values for real materials.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 3, pp. 67–72, May–June, 1988. |
