The flow structures beneath waves have received significant attention from both theoretical and numerical perspectives. Most studies on this topic assume a flat bottom, leading to questions about the effects of variable bottom topography.…
With increasing applied current we show that the moving vortex lattice changes its structure from a triangular one to a set of parallel vortex rows in a pinning free superconductor. This effect originates from the change of the shape of the…

The present work examines the downstream vortex evolution behind a cascade of vortex generators producing counter-rotating vortices in a boundary layer of negligible streamwise pressure gradient. For the current study, which is an extension…
Vortex motions are frequently observed on the solar photosphere. These motions may play a key role in the transport of energy and momentum from the lower atmosphere into the upper solar atmosphere, contributing to coronal heating. The lower…

Vortices in fluids and superfluids are fundamental to phenomena ranging from Bose-Einstein condensates and superfluid films to neutron stars and hydrodynamic micro-rotors, where background geometry often plays an important role. Curvature…
The motion of a vortex domain wall in a ferromagnetic strip of submicron width under the influence of an external magnetic field exhibits three distinct dynamical regimes. In a viscous regime at low fields the wall moves rigidly with a…
Trapped surface waves have been observed in a swimming pool trapped by, and rotating around, the cores of vortices. To investigate this effect, we have numerically studied the free-surface response of a Lamb--Oseen vortex to small…

We consider the radial migration of vortices in two-dimensional isothermal gaseous disks. We find that a vortex core, orbiting at the local gas velocity, induces velocity perturbations that propagate away from the vortex as density waves.…
Seismic waves sensitive to the outermost part of the Earth's liquid core seem to be affected by a stably stratified layer at the core-mantle boundary. Such a layer could have an observable signature in both long-term and short-term…

Studies involving vortex dynamics and their interaction with pinning centers are an important ingredient to reach higher critical currents in superconducting materials. The vortex distribution around arrays of engineered defects, such as…
Rich recirculation patterns have been recently discovered in the electrically conducting flow subject to a local external magnetic termed "the magnetic obstacle" [Phys. Rev. Lett. 98 (2007), 144504]. This paper continues the study of…
Field geological studies highlighted the heterogeneous structure of fault zones from the meter- to millimeter scale, but such internal variability is not generally resolved by seismological techniques due to spatial resolution limits. The…
The video shows the flow dynamics within inner and outer regions of a vortex core. The observed phenomena mimic a transport process occurring within the Antarctic vortex. The video shows two distinct regions: a strongly mixed core and broad…
We study vortex current distributions in narrow thin-film superconducting strips. If one defines the vortex core ``boundary" as a curve where the current reaches the depairing value, intriguing features emerge. Our conclusions based on the…
In this work we present a new conceptual model to describe fluid flow in a porous media system in presence of a large fault. Geological faults are often modeled simply as interfaces in the rock matrix, but they are complex structure where…
