Vortex dynamics in cylindrical containers encapsulate a range of complex fluid behaviours driven by rotational motion. In these geometries, the interplay between centrifugal forces and viscous effects ...

It’s as if the world has been turned upside-down, or at least its weather. You can blame the increasingly familiar polar vortex, which has brought a taste of the Arctic to places where winter often ...

"Vortex" is a common phenomenon in nature from tornado to turbulence, for example turbulence is a vortex buildup process (Figure 1). Investigators have realized that turbulence is not a purely ...

What do dolphins, humans and volcanoes have in common? They can all produce toroidal vortices of course! Surprised? Grab some food colour and a glass of water to find out how. 1. Fill a tall glass to ...
