Notes:
The Chebyshev matrix collocation method is applied to obtain the spatial modes of the Orr-Sommerfeld equation for Poiseuille flow and the Blasius boundary layer. The problem is linearized by the companion matrix technique. For semi-infinite domains a mapping transformation is used. The method can be easily adapted to problems with boundary conditions requiring different transformations.
