Vortex Ring Models

• The vortex ring problem.- Steady inviscid vortex rings.-  Viscous vortex rings.- Viscous vortex rings with elliptical cores.- Confined vortex rings.- Formation number of vortex rings.- Applications of the models.

“The book can be recommended to researchers with an interest in vortex rings or axisymmetric flows. The presentation is self-contained, with all of the mathematics required given in the text or appendices so that workers new to the field can use the book as a starting point for their research. … The connection between mathematical, physical, and engineering applications is well motivated and should allow a reader to apply the presented methods to their problems quite readily.” (Michael J. Carley, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2022)
