SUMMARY:Thermal Instabilities in an Evolving Boundary Layer at a Single Ve
 rtical Wall - Zoe Gumm (City university\, London)

DESCRIPTION:The effects of heating a single vertical wall\, bounding a two
 -dimensional\, semi-infinite\, incompressible fluid are investigated. The 
 flow adjacent to the wall is stable immediately after the onset of heating
 \, becoming unstable later as the time-dependent flow evolves. We aim to i
 dentify when instabilities begin to grow and from this we can achieve the 
 earliest time in which an instability can attain a given growth in energy.
  This involves looking for the most unstable initial conditions at differe
 nt times\, and identifying the earliest time that the energy of any distur
 bance could grow by some predetermined amount.
