The object of this book is to present the state of the art and to summarize the most recent advances in the structure and dynamics of vortices. This subject has indeed recently made some remarkable progress, particularly thanks to studies of turbulence, where coherent structures have been shown to play an important role. The book presents four general reviews on the experimental, numerical, theoretical, and 2D-vortex aspects. In addition to these reviews, a series of articles describe a cross-section of recent work. Some of these studies are concerned with related fields, such as turbulence, aerodynamics, wakes, geophysics, mixing, and particle dynamics. TOC:From the contents: Non-homogeneous/Non-local Two-Dimensional Dynamics.- Numerical Simulation of Vortex Flows.- Of Vortices and Vortical Layers: An Overview.- Visualizations of Stretched Vortices.- Computation of Equilibria Between Two Corotating Nonuniform Vortices.- Ultrasound Scattering by Forced Laminar Wakes.- A Numerical Study of the Elliptic Instability of a Vortex Pair.- On the Stability of Vortices in an Ideal Gas.- Pressure Measurements in a Stretched Vortex.- Characterization of Vortex Flow Inside an Entrained Cavity.- Structure, Dynamics and Turbulence Features of a Confined Vortex.- Large-Scale Power Fluctuations and Dynamic Properties of Isolated Vortices in a Turbulent Flow.
