On the stability of three-dimensional boundary layers [microform] / Erik Janke, Ponnampalam Balakumar.

"The secondary instability of three-dimensional incompressible boundary layers is studied using Floquet theory. Starting from the equilibrium solutions that we obtained from the PSE computations documented in Part 1, we investigate the region where a purely stationary crossflow disturbance satu...
