Review text

This paper can be considered as a partial review of the progress made since 1979 towards our understanding of boundary-layer instability mechanisms using the rational method of matched asymptotic expansions applied to the Navier-Stokes equations when the flow Reynolds number is asymptotically large. By necessity, this review is limited to a discussion of some of the many possible topics that have been investigated over the last two decades. As a consequence, the contributions from many authors have not been reported here, and the reader is left to consider other reviews on the subject which have been noted in this article for the further details. Contents: 1. Introduction; 2. Multi-structured approach to boundary-layer stability; 3. Asymptotic linear theory; 4. Weakly nonlinear theory; 5. Nonlinear theory; 6. Boundary-layer receptivity. 83 references. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0896.00016].
