Abstract

MHD stability of plane Poiseuille flow between parallel flexible walls with coplaner magnetic field is analysed. The study is restricted to sufficiently low values of magnetic Reynolds number. The eigen-value problem so posed is then solved graphically and neutral curves are obtained for various sets of magnetic parameter and flexible wall parameters. The nature of influence on flow stability depends on the values of these parameters.
