Vortex rings are toroidal structures of fluid characterised by closed-loop vorticity that provide a compelling example of coherent structures in fluid dynamics. Their dynamics involve complex ...

After seeing several dark vortexes appear in the ice giant's clouds over the decades, scientists have finally been able to watch one form, and it was a big one. Share on Facebook (opens in a new ...

Vortex is a natural fluid phenomenon that is often of great consequence in almost any practical flow, such as shear layers, ...

Scientists have developed a novel method that dramatically enhances both the power and number of vortices, opening new ...
