Quantum computing of fluid dynamics using the hydrodynamic Schrödinger equation

Z Meng, Y Yang - Physical Review Research, 2023 - APS
Simulating fluid dynamics on a quantum computer is intrinsically difficult due to the nonlinear
and non-Hamiltonian nature of the Navier-Stokes equation (NSE). We propose a framework …

Role of internal structures within a vortex in helicity dynamics

W Shen, J Yao, F Hussain, Y Yang - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
Helicity, an invariant under ideal-fluid (Euler) evolution, has a topological interpretation in
terms of writhe and twist for a closed vortex tube, but accurately quantifying twist is …
