Theoretical models for compressible vortex dynamics

In this thesis, we study the effects of weak compressibility on staggered vortex streets, which are a ubiquitous phenomenon observed in nature. They are formed by fluid flowing past an obstacle, and can be found at several different length scales ranging from human length scales such as in water flo...
