Quadruple decomposition of boundary vorticity flux
Tao Chen, Tianshu Liu
First introduced by Lighthill in 1963 for two-dimensional flows and later generalized by Jie-Zhi Wu to three-dimensional scenarios since 1986, the boundary vorticity flux (BVF) is…

Vorticity-dynamical analysis of Richtmyer-Meshkov instability based on orbital-spin vorticity decomposition
Xi Chen, Tao Chen, Tianshu Liu
The present study provides a detailed vorticity-dynamical analysis of shock-driven hydrodynamic physics in canonical Richtmyer-Meshkov instability (RMI) flows: shock interaction wi…

A general kinematic theory of fluid-element rotation and intrinsic vorticity decompositions
Tao Chen, Jie-Zhi Wu, Feng Mao +1
The present study proposes a general kinematic theory for fluid-element rotation and intrinsic vorticity decompositions within the context of vorticity and vortex dynamics. Both th…
