Dispersion of heavy particles in an isolated pancake-like vortex
The objective of the present study is to characterize the dispersion of small, spherical particles (mainly heavy particles) in a quasi two-dimensional axisymmetric pancake-like vortex. The velocity field for a pancake vortex is substituted into the Maxey-Riley (1983) equation, and the resulting e...
