Evolving the Euler rotation axis as a dynamical system, using the Euler vector and generalizations
John H. Elton, John R. Elton
Differential equations are derived which show how generalized Euler vector representations of the Euler rotation axis and angle for a rigid body evolve in time; the Euler vector is…

Chaotic mixing in plane Couette turbulence
John R. Elton, Predrag CvitanoviÄ, Jonathan Halcrow +1
Lagrangian tracer particle trajectories for invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations confined to the three-dimensional geometry of plane Couette flow are studied. Treatin…
