the mechanism by which weak cross-stream motions in a shear flow redistribute streamwise momentum and produce strongly amplified streamwise streaks.

In fluid mechanics, lift-up effect refers to the mechanism by which weak cross-stream motions in a shear flow redistribute streamwise momentum and produce strongly amplified streamwise streaks. This meaning comes from Landahl (1980) in Journal of Fluid Mechanics.[1]
