Three-dimensional linear stability analysis of Couette flow between two coaxial cylinders for shear-thinning fluids with and without yield stress is performed. The outer cylinder is fixed and the inner one is rotated. Three rheological models are used: Bingham, Carreau and power-law models. Wide range of rheological, geometrical and dynamical parameters is explored. New data for the critical conditions...
