Convergence Characteristics and Computational Cost of Two Algebraic Kernels in Vortex Methods with a Tree-Code Algorithm

We study the convergence characteristics of two algebraic kernels used in vortex calculations: the Rosenhead–Moore kernel, which is a low-order kernel, and the Winckelmans–Leonard kernel, which is a high-order kernel. To facilitate the study, a method of evaluating particle-cluster interactions is i...
