Flow Around a Slender Circular Cylinder: A Case Study on Distributed Hopf Bifurcation

This paper presents a short overview of the flow around a slender circular cylinder, the purpose being to place it within the frame of the distributed Hopf bifurcation problems described by the Ginzburg-Landau equation (GLE). In particular, the chaotic behavior superposed to a well tuned harmonic os...
