Abstract
A linear stability analysis of the boundary layer over an axisymmetric body shows that transverse curvature has a significant effect on the stability. Depending on the curvature axisymmetric or nonaxisymmetric modes may be dominant. Detailed computations of energy balance are also done. The disturbance kinetic energy production indicates that several modes can co-exist giving rise to possibilities for different routes to transition.
