湍流中相干结构的发现激发了人们的希望,即对涡流的研究将导致对湍流的模型和理解,从而解决或至少使经典物理学中未解决的重大问题之一变得不那么神秘。涡旋动力学是混沌运动和现代动力系统理论领域的一个自然范式。在这本专著的重点是在经典理论的无粘不可压缩流体包含有限区域的涡度。从高超音速飞行到全球环境流体力学,黏性、可压缩性、非均匀性和分层的影响在许多应用领域都非常重要。然而,本卷的重点是流体运动的那些方面,主要是由涡度控制,这样的影响,其他流体性质是次要的。这本书将感兴趣的学生流体力学,湍流,和漩涡的方法,以及应用数学家和工程师。
The discovery of coherent structures in turbulence has fostered the hope that the study of vortices will lead to models and an understanding of turbulent flow, thereby solving or at least making less mysterious one of the great unresolved problems of classical physics. Vortex dynamics is a natural paradigm for the field of chaotic motion and modern dynamical system theory. The emphasis in this monograph is on the classical theory of inviscid incompressible fluids containing finite regions of vorticity. The effects of viscosity, compressiblity, inhomogeneity, and stratification are enormously important in many fields of application, from hypersonic flight to global environmental fluid mechanics. However, this volume focuses on those aspects of fluid motion that are primarily controlled by the vorticity and are such that the effects of the other fluid properties are secondary. This book will be of interest to students of fluid mechanics, turbulence, and vortex methods as well as to applied mathematicians and engineers.
