Vortex Sheet Dynamics

Vortex Sheet Dynamics is a theoretical framework within vorticity dynamics that characterizes the evolution and interaction of infinitesimally thin layers of concentrated vorticity separating regions of differing fluid velocity, distinguished by its idealized representation of shear layers as singular surfaces across which velocity undergoes a discontinuous change.
