Interactions between circular vortex-rings and free-surfaces by Lim, Xin Le

“…Furthermore, the vortex structures under the influence of diffusion at Re = 2000 and rapid eddy development at Re = 4000 were observed as gradual dissipation, which current experimental techniques could not capture at late time. This include the Crow, high wavelength, instability which strength is relative to the Reynolds number.…”

La verdad y el éxito de la ciencia: A propósito de un artículo de P. Kyle Stanford by Manuel Comesaña

“…In this work I wish to suggest that: (a) to explain the success of a theory in this way is analogous to explaining the blackness of a swan by saying that it is chromatically similar to a crow; (b) there is a plausible explanation of how a totally false theory can have the mentioned capacity, viz., that it contains ad-hoc hypothesis; and (c) that, thus, a false theory having also the same capacity as a (partially) true one to generate predictions that are "novel" in sorne reasonably strong sense would be a miracle.…”
