Vorticism was a London-based
modernist art
movement formed in 1914 by the
writer and
artist Wyndham Lewis. The
movement was
partially inspired by Cubism...
- The
vorticity equation of
fluid dynamics describes the
evolution of the
vorticity ω of a
particle of a
fluid as it
moves with its flow; that is, the local...

roughly parallel to the axis. A
surface that is
everywhere tangent to both flow
velocity and
vorticity is
called a vortex...
- In
fluid mechanics,
potential vorticity (PV) is a
quantity which is
proportional to the dot
product of
vorticity and stratification. This quantity, following...
- the
Coriolis force and
conservation of
potential vorticity which leads to
changes of
relative vorticity. This is
analogous to
conservation of
angular momentum...

simplified form of the

-
Positive vorticity advection, or PVA, is the
result of more
cyclonic values of
vorticity advecting into
lower values of
vorticity. It is more generally...
- the
mechanism by
which vorticity is generated.
Vorticity is the curl of the
velocity field. In general, the
evolution of
vorticity can be
broken into contributions...

sometimes entropy-vortex waves)
refer to small-amplitude
waves carried by the gas
