Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We consider the motion of a viscous incompressible fluid flowing down an inclined plane under the effect of gravity. The fluid motion is governed by the Navier-Stokes equations with the free boundary conditions. When the Reynolds number and the angle are sufficiently small, the mathematical justification of the long-wave approximation is known. To obtain a specific range of this ``sufficiently small Reynolds number'’, we examine the spectra of the compact operator arising the linearized problem. Then we calculate about a range of the Reynolds number, when the linear operator has a non-zero eigenvalue.
