A spectral Petrov-Galerkin formulation for pipe flow II: Nonlinear transitional stages

This work is devoted to the study of the nonlinear evolution of perturbations of Hagen-Poiseuille or pipe flow. We make use of a solenoidal spectral Petrov-Galerkin method for the spatial discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations for the perturbation field. For the time evolution, we use a semi-...
