Note on the instability of a non-uniform vortex sheet
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 March 2006
Abstract
Howard's semicircle theorem and a variational principle for the instability of unidirectional flow of an inviscid fluid are applied to the non-uniform vortex sheets discussed in a previous paper (Hocking 1964). Certain results of §5 of that paper are shown to be wrong and the correct results are obtained.
