Non-symmetric Holmboe waves
When two flows of different velocity and density meet, a shear layer with a density gradient is formed. Under certain conditions this flow can be unstable. A statically stable stratified shear flow in which the density interface is much thinner than the shear layer thickness can be linearly unsta...
