Description for Introduction to Vortex Filaments in Equilibrium
hardcover. Series: Springer Monographs in Mathematics. Num Pages: 150 pages, 1 black & white illustrations, 80 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PDE; PHDF; PHU. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 10. Weight in Grams: 397.
This book presents fundamental concepts and seminal results to the study of vortex filaments in equilibrium. It also presents new discoveries in quasi-2D vortex structures with applications to geophysical fluid dynamics and magnetohydrodynamics in plasmas. It fills a gap in the vortex statistics literature by simplifying the mathematical introduction to this complex topic, covering numerical methods, and exploring a wide range of applications with numerous examples. The authors have produced an introduction that is clear and easy to read, leading the reader step-by-step into this topical area. Alongside the theoretical concepts and mathematical formulations, interesting applications are discussed. This combination ... Read more
