Vortex dynamics encompasses the study of swirling flows and the interaction of vortices, which are coherent structures that transport momentum, energy and mass in fluid systems. Within this broad ...

Knots are not just for shoelaces and sailing lines. In the last decade, physicists have shown that swirling liquids can ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The model of body—vortex interactions, where the fluid flow is planar, ideal and unbounded, and the vortex is a point vortex, is studied. The ...

A team of researchers affiliated with UNIST has made a significant breakthrough by mathematically proving that a special type of vortex pair, called the Sadovskii vortex patch, can exist within ideal ...

An Australian-led study has provided new insight into the behaviour of rotating superfluids. A defining feature of superfluids is that they exhibit quantised vortices – they can only rotate with one, ...

It’s the ‘Eureka’ moment we’ve all been waiting for (Picture: Getty) It’s one of those problems Earth citizens have been begging scientists to solve for decades – and chemists have finally had their ...
