Summary
Nonlinear aspects of coherent structures in dusty plasmas are discussed. These are the formation of envelope Langmuir solitons and shocks in a uniform dusty plasma as well as the self-organization of incompressible dust fluid in the form of vortical structures. We present conditions under which these excitations in dusty plasmas are possible. The relevance of our investigation to laboratory and space plasmas is discussed.
