An experimental study of the development and growth rate of short-wave instabilities on a vortex dipole
Aircraft wakes ar~ dominated by a pair of strong counter-rotating vortices that give rise to the well known 'wake hazard' wherein an aircraft encountering the wake may be subjected to severe forces and moments. Eventually, naturally occurring instabilities grow and cause the breakdown of t...
