...The analogon of the Crow instability is denoted by the second symmetric mode S2, while it can be seen that the discovered modes S1 and A are respectively amplified by factors 10 and 5 stronger than S1; the spatial structure of the new eigenmodes is shown in Fig....

...The first is akin to Crow instability and corresponds to wavelengths and growth rates that are, respectively, too large and too small to be interesting for the wake–vortex minimisation problem (top of figure)....

...He employed the vortex-filament approach also used by Crow [44] and Jim!enez [164] and numerical solutions of the initial value problem resulting from matching the induced velocities that the Biot–Savart law delivers with kinematic conditions resulting from temporal differentiation of the position vectors of the vortex system....

...Since the key objective of the current efforts is to provide recommendations leading to reduction of aircraftseparation limits, currently of the order of a few minutes, focus of instability analyses is on mechanisms other than the classic Crow [44] instability, the longwavelength nature of which excludes it from playing an active role in the sought process....

...Prime examples of such modelling have been performed in the framework of the classic analysis of trailing vortex instability by Crow [44] and the recent efforts of de Bruin et al....

...Arendt et al. (1997) and Fritts et al. (1998) also found that vortex-vortex interactions with longer wavelengths [associated with the cooperative Crow (1970) instability of neighboring elliptical vortices] could also induce turbulence, and it is not yet clear which of these competing mechanisms, if…...
