[PDF] Hydrodynamic and Hydromagnetic Stability (International Series of Monographs on Physics (Oxford, England).) S. Chandrasekhar

The Nobel Laureate’s monumental study surveys hydrodynamic and hydromagnetic stability as a branch of experimental physics. Among the subjects treated: thermal instability of a layer of fluid heated from below, the Benard problem, stability of Couette flow, and the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability.
