Compressible vortex dynamics and shock wave interactions are central to advancing our understanding of fluid mechanics in high-speed regimes. These phenomena underpin critical applications in ...

Vortex rings are toroidal structures of fluid characterised by closed-loop vorticity that provide a compelling example of coherent structures in fluid dynamics. Their dynamics involve complex ...

University of Chicago physicists working in the nascent field of experimental vortex dynamics have, with unexpected help from a Sharpie marker, achieved the first measurements of an elusive but ...
