Dynamic instability may refer to any of several scientific phenomena:
*
Aircraft dynamic modes, including aircraft dynamic instability
*
Atmospheric instability
Atmospheric instability is a condition where the Earth's atmosphere is generally considered to be unstable and as a result the weather is subjected to a high degree of variability through distance and time. Atmospheric stability is a measure of t ...

Firehose instability
The firehose instability (or hose-pipe instability) is a dynamical instability of thin or elongated galaxies. The instability causes the galaxy to buckle or bend in a direction perpendicular to its long axis. After the instability has run its ...
