= Lamb–Oseen vortex
{wiki=Lamb–Oseen_vortex}

The Lamb–Oseen vortex is a specific type of steady, axisymmetric vortex flow that arises in incompressible fluid dynamics. It describes the velocity profile of a vortex that has a Gaussian-like distribution of velocity around an axis of rotation, often encountered in fluid mechanics, particularly in the study of turbulence and vortex dynamics. \#\#\# Key Characteristics: 1. **Velocity Profile**: The velocity field of the Lamb–Oseen vortex can be expressed mathematically.
