Clustered Equilibria of Point Vortices
Kevin A. O'Neil Department of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, The University of Tulsa, 800 S. Tucker Dr., Tulsa OK 74104 USA
Abstract:
Point vortex equilibria in which the vortices are arranged in clusters are examined. The vortex velocities in these configurations are all equal. Necessary conditions for their existence are established that relate the circulations within the clusters to the cluster radius. A method for generating these configurations by singular continuation is proved to be valid for the generic case. Finally, a partial analysis of exceptional cases is given and their connection to the existence of parametrized families of equilibria is described.
Keywords:
point vortex, equilibrium, singular continuation.
