    The effect of super imposed rigid body rotations on the nonlinear stability of an arbitrary base flow is examined from a theoretical standpoint for incompressible Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. It is proven mathematically, from an analysis of the full nonlinear equations of motion, that instabilities which depend on the state of rotation of the fluid must arise from variations in the velocity disturbances along the axis of rotation of the fluid.
