In this thesis, we consider the dynamics of vortices in the easy plane insulating ferromagnet in two dimensions. In addition to the quasiparticle excitations, here spin waves or magnons, this magnetic system admits a family of vortex…
The most elementary structures of turbulence, i.e., vortex tubes, are studied using velocity data obtained in a laboratory experiment for boundary layers with microscale Reynolds numbers 295-1258. We conduct conditional averaging for…
The motion of three interacting point vortices in the plane can be thought of as the motion of three geometrical points endowed with a dynamics. This motion can therefore be re-formulated in terms of dynamically evolving geometric…
While vorticity is the classical tool for analyzing rotational fluid kinematics, it inherently focuses on local, differential spin. This paper introduces a complementary framework based on the angular momentum density field, $\mathbf{L} =…

Velocity gradient is the basis of many vortex recognition methods, such as Q criterion, $\Delta$ criterion, $\lambda_{2}$ criterion, $\lambda_{ci}$ criterion and $\Omega$ criterion, etc.. Except the $\lambda_{ci}$ criterion, all these…
Vortices in electron fluids are a key indicator of electron hydrodynamics. However, a comprehensive framework linking macroscopic vorticity measurements with microscopic interactions and scattering mechanisms has been lacking. We employ…
Turbulence is defined as an eddy-like state of fluid motion where the inertial-vortex forces of the eddies are larger than any other forces that tend to damp the eddies out. By this definition, turbulence always cascades from small scales…
At present in the fluid mechanics, mostly one like to use the vortex as a basic physical quantity, such that some exact solutions is based on the vorticity evolution equation. For the vortex flow problem with axisymmetry, it is well known…

It is well known that a superfluid rotates by forming an array of quantized vortices. A relativistic formulation for superfluid vortex dynamics is required for a range of problems in astrophysics and cosmology, from neutron star interiors…
The fundamental mode of rotation in quantum fluids is given by a vortex, whose quantized value yields the orbital angular momentum (OAM) per particle. If the vortex is displaced (off-centered) from the reference point for rotation, the…
