Playing a role in the locomotion of some animals such as the water strider, the formation and dynamics of a semi vortex ring connected to a free surface are experimentally investigated. This semi vortex ring is generated by the circular…
We study the creation and breakdown of a quantized vortex shear layer forming between a stationary Bose-Einstein condensate and a stirred-in persistent current. Once turbulence is established, we characterize the progressive clustering of…
The mechanisms governing the transition to turbulence in natural convection boundary layers along strongly heated vertical walls remain neither very clear nor well understood, because of the lack of experiments and the difficulties of…
We show that a vortex matter, that is a dense assembly of vortices in an incompressible two-dimensional flow, such as a fast rotating superfluid or turbulent flows with sign-like eddies, exhibits (i) a boundary layer of vorticity (vorticity…
Unstable shear layers in environmental and industrial flows roll up into a series of vortices, which often form complex nonlinear merging patterns like pairs and triplets. These patterns crucially determine the subsequent turbulence, mixing…
Recently, Goldman (2024) obtained evidence for a large scale compressible, Burgers turbulence in the ism of a gravitationally lensed, star-forming galaxy at $z = 1.87$, with an outflowing wind. The turbulent timescale on the largest spatial…
We treat string propagation and interaction in the presence of a background Neveu-Schwarz three-form field strength, suitable for describing vortex rings in a superfluid or low-viscosity normal fluid. A circular vortex ring exhibits…
Ring vortices are efficient at transporting fluid. They are often produced by ejecting a volume of fluid through a circular orifice. The impulse given to the vortex rings results in a propulsive force on the generator. Propulsive vortex…

Turbulence has strong and seemingly random fluctuations. Assessing its repeatability is key to predicting flows in technology and nature, much of which decay as viscosity dissipates energy. Much has been done to this end since the work of…
We study the formation of vortices in a U(1) gauge theory following a first-order transition proceeding by bubble nucleation, in particular the effect of a low velocity of expansion of the bubble walls. To do this, we use a two-dimensional…

The transport equations for velocity variances are investigated using data from DNS of incompressible channel flows at $Re_\tau$ up to 5200. Each term in the transport equation has been spectrally decomposed to expose the contribution of…
G\"{o}rtler vortices develop along concave walls as a result of the imbalance between the centrifugal force and radial pressure gradient. In this study, we introduce a simple control strategy aimed at reducing the growth rate of G\"{o}rtler…
Magnetic holes (MHs) are coherent structures associated with strong magnetic field depressions in magnetized plasmas. They are observed in many astrophysical environments at a wide range of scales but their origin is still under debate. In…
