school
Vortices and vortex sheets: theories, numerics and applications
4-10 June 2007
Centre IGESA, Island of Porquerolles,
Hyeres, France
Objectives
Vortices and vortex sheets are fundamental constitutive elements
of
large Reynolds number flows. They are present on the smallest scales of
turbulence as well as on large scale in the form of coherent
structures. They have their own dynamics and are extremely receptive to
external forcing. They are also subject to complex interactions
which may lead to their recombination (vortex merging) or disappearance
(vortex breakdown or bursting).
The objective of this summer school is to provide a
comprehensive overview of the different physical mecanisms involved in
the stability and dynamics of vortices and vortex sheets,
to introduce the numerical tools and theoretical methods used to
describe their evolution, to discuss some applications in the
aeronautical context.
