Abstract
Abstract The definitions of temporal instability and of spatial instability in a flow system are comparatively surveyed. The simple model of one-dimensional Burgers’ flow is taken as the scenario where such different conceptions of instability are described. The temporal analysis of instability stems from Lyapunov’s theory, while the spatial analysis of instability interchanges time and space in defining the evolution variable. Thus, the growth rate parameter for temporally unstable perturbations of a basic flow state is to be replaced by a spatial growth rate when a coordinate assumes the role of evolution variable. Finally, the idea of spatial instability is applied to a Rayleigh-Bénard system given by a fluid-saturated horizontal porous layer with an anisotropic permeability and impermeable boundaries kept at different uniform temperatures.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
