Title: Vortex interaction in a shear/strain flow
Author: CARTON , Xavier; Xavier Perrot
Abstract: The motion of two symmetric point vortices (one per layer), embedded in a barotropic, time-varying external strain and rotation, is studied in a two-layer quasi-geostrophic model. Point vortex equilibria and stability are determined. Resonance with the external flow is calculated.
