Stability of Shear-Thickening and Shear-Thinning Fluids in Narrow Gap between Rotating Cylinders

The effect of weak shear Thickening and shear thinning on the stability of the Taylor-Couette flow is explored for a Carreau-Bird fluid in the narrow-gap limit. The Galerkin projection method is used to derive a low-order dynamical system from the conservation of mass and momentum equations. In comp...
