Published in 2019 at "Physics of Fluids"

DOI: 10.1063/1.5095624

Abstract: Vortices are a ubiquitous natural phenomenon, and their structure, shape, and characteristics should be independent of the observer, which implies that the vortex identification method or vortex definition should maintain its objectivity. Currently, most of… read more here.
