Today's topic is calculating invariant solutions of plane Couette flow. The lecture will cover

  * [[docs:utils:findorbit|findorbit]]: a channelflow utility for computing equilibria, traveling waves, and periodic orbits.

  * [[docs:math:symmetry|Symmetries of plane Couette flow]]. Symmetries determine the type of solution (e.g. equilibrium vs traveling wave) and help us choose initial guesses.
