REVISITING THE PARADIGM OF PREDOMINANT VORTEX STRETCHING AND RELATED etc15 Tracking Number 24Presentation: Session: Vortex Dynamics 1 Room: Room A Session start: 10:30 Tue 25 Aug 2015 Arkady Tsinober tsinober@eng.tau.ac.il Affifliation: Tel Aviv University Topics: - Vortex dynamics and structure formation Abstract: We address two issues of paradigmatic nature. The first one, among other things, concerns the fact how it is possible to have predominant vortex stretching mostly due to the largest eigen-strain without predominant alignment of vorticity ω with the eigen-vector λ1 corresponding to the largest eigen-strain Λ1. The second is about the paradigmatic qualitative difference between the fields of vorticity and that of rate of strain. |
