A system of three point vortices in an unbounded plane has a special family of self-similarly contracting or expanding solutions: during the motion, vortex triangle remains similar to the original one, while its area decreases (grows) at a constant rate. A contracting configuration brings three vortices to a single point in a finite time; this phenomenon known as vortex collapse is of principal importance for many-vortex systems. Dynamics of close-to-collapse vortex configurations depends on the way the collapse conditions are violated. Using an effective potential representation, a detailed quantitative analysis of all the different types of near-collapse dynamics is performed when two of the vortices are identical. We discuss time and length scales, emerging in the problem, and their behavior as the initial vortex triangle is approaching to an exact collapse configuration. Different types of critical behaviors, such as logarithmic or power-law divergences are exhibited, which emphasizes the importance of the way the collapse is approached. Period asymptotics for all singular cases are presented as functions of the initial vortices configurations. Special features of passive particle mixing by a near-collapse flows are illustrated numerically.
The study focuses on the 3D electro-hydrodynamic (EHD) instability for flow between to parallel electrodes with unipolar charge injection with and without cross-flow. Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) with two-relaxation time (TRT) model is used to stud
When a fluid system is subject to strong rotation, centrifugal fluid motion is expected, i.e., denser (lighter) fluid moves outward (inward) from (toward) the axis of rotation. Here we demonstrate, both experimentally and numerically, the existence o
The dynamics of wetting and dewetting is largely determined by the velocity field near the contact lines. For water drops it has been observed that adding surfactant decreases the dynamic receding contact angle even at a concentration much lower than
A fluid dynamics video of the rotating, weakly stratified Boussinesq equations is presented that illustrates the spontaneous formation of columnar vortices in the presence of stochastic, white noise forcing.
Numerical simulation of Electroconvective vortices behavior in the presence of Couette flow between two infinitely long electrodes is investigated. The two-relaxation-time Lattice Boltzmann Method with fast Poisson solver solves for the spatiotempora
