The nonlinear development of Gortler vortices in growing boundary layers
TL;DR: The growth of Gortler vortices in boundary layers on concave walls is investigated in this paper, and it is shown that the concept of a unique neutral curve so familiar in hydrodynamic-stability theory is not tenable in the gortler problem except for asymptotically small wavelengths.

On the görtler instability of boundary layers
TL;DR: A summary of the current knowledge of the Gortler instability can be found in this paper, where the effect of the instability on heat transfer and the associated buoyancy forces on the instability is discussed.
On the Goertler instability of boundary layers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a summary of the current knowledge of the Gortler instability and compare the available nonlinear theories and direct numerical simulations with the available experiments, and discuss the effect of the instability on heat transfer and buoyancy forces on the instability.

Taylor—Gortler vortices in fully developed or boundary-layer flows: linear theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the stability characteristics of fully developed flows between concentric cylinders driven either by a pressure gradient or the motion of the inner cylinder are investigated and used as a basis for a formal perturbation solution to the corresponding stability problem appropriate to a developing boundary layer.

Production of Longitudinal Vortices in the Boundary Layer along a Concave Wall
TL;DR: In this paper, the wave amplitude distribution and wave amplification rate of the laminar boundary layer along a concave wall are analyzed. But the mechanism by which the wave number is determined remains an open question.

Stability of Goertler vortices in boundary layers
TL;DR: In this article, the boundary-layer and disturbance equations are formulated in a general, orthogonal, curvilinear system of coordinates constructed from the inviscid flow over a curved surface.
