Coherent hydrodynamic structures and vortex dynamics

Аннотация

Possible approaches to modeling two-dimensional coherent hydrodynamic structures based on the statistical mechanics of local vortices are considered. The exact definitions of coherent structures are given and the mechanisms of their formation are shown. The bases of the kinetic theory of Onsager vortices are given and the possibility of applying the classical molecular-kinetic theory for the explanation of the origin of vortex meso-structures in the shear flows is considered.
