Figure 6


Fig. 6. Summary of vortex-wake topologies, the attachment of the LEV and the number of shed LEVs and TEVs as a function of dimensionless wavelength {lambda}*. Note that the effective angle of attack amplitude A{alpha} strongly increases with decreasing {lambda}*, which in part explains the increasing vortex size. The more densely packed wake at low {lambda}* is a direct result of the smaller distances between the shed vortices. Solid lines (1–3) indicate bifurcations found in one movie sequence. Filled and open circles are for easy distinction between modes only.
