Ordered and Turbulent Patterns in Taylor-Couette Flow

Klappentext

These papers are from the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Ordered and Turbulent Patterns in Taylor-Couette Flow, held in Columbus, Ohio, May 1991. For 70 years, the apparently simple system of a fluid between two rotating cylinders has fascinated scientists, applied mathematicians and engineers.
