Abstract
The stabilizing effect of a shear flow on a current-driven instability has been studied by means of Kelvin’s representation of spatially-inhomogeneous Galilean transform. Even though conspicuous transient growth may occur, the mixing effect of the shear flow overcomes the instability and damps kinklike modes.
