    The effect of cylinder eccentricity on Couette-Taylor transition is investigated here for flow between infinite rotating cylinders. The method of analysis is Fourier expansion of the conservation equations in the axial direction, followed by projection onto a polynomial subspace. Critical points of the solution, which are characterized by singularity of the Jacobian matrix, are located via parametric continuation.
