An experimental study on vortex-rings colliding with surfaces with micro-features by Sanjay, Godsay Nikhil

“…An interesting vortex dipole was seen to form in the inner confines of the primary vortex ring upon collision in certain experiments due to boundary layer separation within the primary vortex ring rolling up into an internal secondary vortex core. The creation an ejection of secondary vortex structures outside of the primary vortex rings were only observed in experiments with a post diameter of 1mm and separation distances of 2.5mm and 10mm.…”

The art of blotting: Alexander Cozens's New Method as intermedial practice by Kaes, F

“…I argue that such interactions are the context in which Cozens’s unusual blotting technique, and its theoretical claims about artistic creation and pictorial composition, took shape. Utilising the concept of artisanal epistemology, the thesis demonstrates that Cozens’s theory of blotting emerged from both his intellectual engagement with contemporary aesthetic debates <em>and</em> his practical engagement with different media—both of which were shaped by issues of intermediality.…”
