Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

An analysis is performed of the evolution in time of the structure- and vorticity fields in viscousand inviscid-fluid numerically simulated wave-diffraction cases. It is shown that numerical integration of the Euler equations gives rather meaningful results in terms of structure- and vorticity fields in the cases considered, as compared with the physically rigorous approach represented by the solution of the full Navier−Stokes equations.
