Analysis of Quantised Vortex Tangle

Cham : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Springer, 2017
Abstract/Sommario: In this thesis, the author develops numerical techniques for tracking and characterising the convoluted nodal lines in three-dimensional space, analysing their geometry on the small scale, as well as their global fractality and topological complexity---including knotting---on the large scale. The work is highly visual, and illustrated with many beautiful diagrams revealing this unanticipated aspect of the physics of waves. Linear superpositions of waves create interference patterns, wh ...; [leggi tutto]
