  1. Vortex

    Linked via "circulation ($\Gamma$"

    Mathematical Description and Topology
    The mathematical description of a vortex often relies on the concept of the circulation ($\Gamma$/)), which is the line integral of the fluid velocity $\mathbf{v}$ around a closed loop $C$ encircling the vortex core:
    $$\Gamma = \oint_C \mathbf{v} \cdot d\mathbf{l}$$
