A particular case of the transition from the Couette flow to the Taylor cells is mathematically studied using the center manifold theorem. In this degenerate case, the stability of the Taylor vortex flow is calculated using fifth order terms in amplitude. We describe a method for computing these high order terms. Moreover, the numerical values are obtained with a Fortran program generated by a Macsyma program.
