Dean's approximation for curved pipe flow, valid under loose coiling and high Reynolds numbers, is extended to study three-dimensional travelling waves. Two distinct types of solutions bifurcate from the Dean's classic two-vortex solution.…

While some works have investigated the particle trajectories and stagnation points beneath solitary waves with constant vorticity, little is known about the pressure beneath such waves. To address this gap, we investigate numerically the…
The vortex-wave system describes the motion of a two-dimensional ideal fluid in which the vorticity includes continuously distributed vorticity, which is called the background vorticity, and a finite number of concentrated vortices. In this…
To date it has not been possible to prove whether or not the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations develop singular behaviour in finite time. Some possible singular scenarios, as for instance shock-waves, are very important from…
In this article, we first investigate the kinematics of specific geodesic flows on two dimensional media with constant curvature, by explicitly solving the evolution (Raychaudhuri) equations for the expansion, shear and rotation along the…
We prove the global uniqueness of multidimensional subsonic flows for the steady Euler--Poisson system in a bounded nozzle in the sense that uniqueness holds without restricting solutions to be small perturbations of a background state. The…
We consider the inviscid unsteady Prandtl system in two dimensions, motivated by the fact that it should model to leading order separation and singularity formation for the original viscous system. We give a sharp expression for the maximal…
The structure of a single flux line in (s+d)-wave superconductors has been analyzed within the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) model generalized for two order parameter components. The fourfold symmetric singular vortex solution is shown to be…
We continue the study of Confined Vortex Surfaces (\CVS{}) that we introduced in the previous paper. We classify the solutions of the \CVS{} equation and find the analytical formula for the velocity field for arbitrary background strain…
When a plane shock hits a two-dimensional wedge head on, it experiences a reflection-diffraction process, and then a self-similar reflected shock moves outward as the original shock moves forward in time. The experimental, computational,…
The flow in a shock tube is extremely complex with dynamic multi-scale structures of sharp fronts, flow separation, and vortices due to the interaction of the shock wave, the contact surface, and the boundary layer over the side wall of the…
We are concerned with the Prandtl-Meyer reflection configurations of unsteady global solutions for supersonic flow impinging upon a symmetric solid wedge. Prandtl (1936) first employed the shock polar analysis to show that there are two…
We develop a new approach and employ it to establish the global existence and nonlinear structural stability of attached weak transonic shocks in steady potential flow past three-dimensional wedges; in particular, the restriction that the…
Large-scale motions, also known as superstructures, are dynamically relevant coherent structures in a wall-bounded turbulent flow, that span the entire domain in wall-normal direction and significantly contribute to the global energy and…
Recent advances in cold-atom platforms have made real-time dynamics accessible, renewing interest in the motion of superfluid vortices in two-dimensional domains. Here we show that the energy and the trajectories of arbitrary vortex…
In this paper, we establish the existence of Stokes waves with piecewise smooth vorticity in a two-dimensional, infinitely deep fluid domain. These waves represent traveling water waves propagating over sheared currents in a semi-infinite…
We study the inflow-outflow boundary value problem on an interval, the analog of the 1D shock tube problem for gas dynamics, for general systems of hyperbolic-parabolic conservation laws. In a first set of investigations, we study…
We revise the steady vortex surface theory following the recent finding of asymmetric vortex sheets (AM,2021). These surfaces avoid the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability by adjusting their discontinuity and shape. The vorticity collapses to the…
