How do vortices live in spatio-temporally complex flows?

The project aims to understand the fundamental mechanism of vortices occurring in flows involving spatio-temporal complexity, by using the combination of dynamical systems theory and asymptotic analysis. This innovative combined mathematical analysis will be coupled with sophisticated computations to be enabled by the international interdisciplinary collaboration between the Mathematics and Engineering at Australia and Japan. The expected outcomes are breakthroughs in the fundamental understanding of turbulence. This should lead to significant insight into better turbulent modellings used in, for example, wide range of engineering, physiological and geophysical flows.
