A code for linear stability analysisA new spectral code, Linear.x, has been written in FORTRAN 77 for the analysis of the linear stability of some basic state. While being generic and unrelated to any particular physical problem, the code provides for various common tasks, including global (eigenvalue spectra), local (single eigenvalues and eigenfunctions), table (one-dimensional and multidimensional tables of eigenvalues), curve (curves in parameter space), and others. A specific problem can be defined as a set of files some of which are included at compile time, while definitions, tasks, and parameters are read during run time. The code is currently used for the stability analysis of compressible flows.
