Abstract
With fhe aid of the Galerkin method. a model system of equations governing the Taylor­ Couette flow between two concentric cylinders is presented. which is an extension of the system given by the author in I and contains both axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric Taylor vortex modes. Direct numerical time integration of the present system shows that. with the increase of the angular velocity of the inner cylinder. the motion changes its character one after another as follows: periodic motion ~ quasi-periodic motion with two fundamental frequencies ~ periodic motion accompanied by noise ~ chaotic (noisy) motion.

Transition in circular couette flow

TL;DR: In this article, two distinct kinds of transition have been identified in Couette flow between rotating cylinders: the Taylor motion (periodic in the axial direction) and a pattern of travelling waves in the circumferential direction.

A mathematical example displaying features of turbulence

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider an incompressible and homogeneous viscous fluid within given material boundaries under given exterior forces and assume that the boundary conditions and the outside forces are stationary, i.e. independent of time.

On the application of infinite systems of ordinary differential equations to perturbations of plane Poiseuille flow

TL;DR: In this paper, the Navier-Stokes equations are replaced by a set of functions of the space variables which have divergence zero and which vanish outside sets of compact support, and the existence of a solution of this system is then established by a process of successive approximations involving a square truncation of the system.
