Overview
- Includes discussion topics and questions
- Informal survey-style benefits, survey courses, and seminar classes focused on discussion and independent projects
- Gradual increase in depth as the book progresses - refocuses students and learners on topics covered in earlier chapters
- Focuses on particular kind of feature, vortex filaments, in numerous areas of physics rather than a particular area of physics
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book
Reviews
“This book is devoted to the study of vortex filaments in equilibrium, quasi-2D vortex structures with applications to geophysical fluid dynamics and magnetohydrodynamics in plasmas. … The text is useful for both researchers and students.” (Maria Christina Mariani, zbMATH 1327.82001, 2016)
“This is a short but excellent research monograph that would be useful for the advanced study of and future research on vortex dynamics and its modern applications. I strongly recommend it to anyone interested in analytical and computational research on vortex filaments as well as quantum vortices and their applications. It would be suitableas a resource book for graduate-level research seminars for advanced graduate students and research professionals.” (L. Debnath, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2015)
