Abstract
In addition to the enormous aerodynamical literature concerned with the disturbances to a uniform stream produced by the presence of obstacles, there is a very extensive litrature on disturbances to irrotational non-uniform streams. The smaller body of work on disturbances to rotational streams is concerned principally with two-dimensional disturbances to a parallel shear flow; these are fairly easy to treat because the vortex lines are straight; they remain parallel and do not get stretched at all during the motion.
