Strongly coupled dusty plasma medium is often described as a viscoelastic fluid that retains its memory. In a flowing dusty plasma medium, vortices of different sizes appear when the flow does not remain laminar. The vortices also merge to…
In two-dimensional (2D) inviscid incompressible flow, low background vorticity distribution accelerates intense vortices (clumps) to merge each other and to array in the symmetric pattern which is called ``vortex crystals''; they are…
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…
Quantized vortices stunningly illustrate the coherent nature of a superfluid Bose condensate of alkali atoms. Introducing an optical lattice depletes this coherence. Consequently, novel vortex physics may emerge in an experiment on a…

We investigate the properties of highly compressible turbulence, the compressibility arising from a small effective polytropic exponent $\gamma_e$ due to cooling. In the limit of small $\gamma_e$, the density jump at shocks is shown to be…
The asymmetries that arise when a mixing layer involves two miscible fluids of differing densities are investigated using incompressible (low-speed) direct numerical simulations. The simulations are performed in the temporal configuration…
In a concurrent work, Villois et al. 2020 reported the evidence that vortex reconnections in quantum fluids follow an irreversible dynamics, namely vortices separate faster than they approach; such time-asymmetry is explained by using…
We use numerical simulations to examine vortex states and dynamics in periodic funnel geometries where a drive is applied in the easy flow direction. We show that this system exhibits a number of different commensurability effects when the…
We investigate the effect of particle inertia on the merger of co-rotating dusty vortex pairs at semi-dilute concentrations. In a particle-free flow, the merger is triggered once the ratio of vortex core size to vortex separation reaches a…

The impact of intrinsic compressibility effects -- changes in fluid volume due to pressure variations -- on high-speed wall-bounded turbulence has often been overlooked or incorrectly attributed to mean property variations. To unambiguously…
Compressibility effects in a turbulent transport of temperature field are investigated applying the quasi-linear approach for small P\'eclet numbers and the spectral $\tau$ approach for large P\'eclet numbers. Compressibility of a fluid…
Vorticity has recently been suggested to be a property of highly-spinning black holes. The connection between vorticity and limiting spin represents a universal feature shared by objects of maximal microstate entropy, so-called saturons.…
We study formation of quasi two-dimensional (thin pancakes) vortex structures in three-dimensional flows, and quasi one-dimensional structures in two-dimensional hydrodynamics. These structures are formed at high Reynolds numbers, when…
The purpose of this work is to analyze the flow due to a potential point vortex pair in the vicinity of a symmetry line (or "wall"), in order to understand why the presence of the wall, even far from the vortices, accelerates fluid mixing…
