Abstract: Abstract One important source of dynamic transitions and pattern formation is transition and stability problems in fluid dynamics, including in particular Rayleigh–Bénard convection, the Couette–Taylor problem, the Couette–Poiseuille–Taylor problem, and the parallel shear flow problem. The study of these basic problems leads to a better understanding of turbulent behavior in fluid flows, which in turn often leads to new insights and methods in the solution of other problems in science and engineering.
