This $145,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research by Florida State University (FSU) to investigate instabilities in incompressible fluid flows. The principal investigator will study new scenarios in which steady fluid flows, such as in the air, oceans, or jet engines, can become unstable due to small disturbances. This includes analyzing linear and nonlinear instabilities of the Euler equations governing fluid motion, with a focus on challenging cases like axisymmetric flows and irregular velocity fields from vortex sheets. The research aims to improve theoretical understanding of fluid instabilities, which can inform applications ranging from transportation and energy systems to weather prediction. No subawards are planned under this award, which has an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2028.
