Outline of proposed changes

The article I want to primarily use: Zhao, Y., Yan, G., Feng, R., Kang, H., & Duan, Z. (2023). Influence of swirl ratio and radial Reynolds number on wind characteristics of multi-vortex tornadoes. Advances in Structural Engineering, 26(1), 89–107. https://doi.org/10.1177/13694332221119867

The Talk page indicates some more information about types of Multi-vortex tornadoes such as “dead man walking” but others on the talk page believe that adding dead man walking is redundant and should have its own Wikipedia page entirely due to people being more likely to look up “dead man walking” instead of “multi-vortex tornadoes” . I want to go in depth of all the different types of multi-vortex tornadoes because there are many different kinds but none of them are defined.

Types of Multi-Vortex Tornadoes

Symmetric/Organized Multi-vortex Tornadoes (Original)

  • Sub-vortices revolve at fairly constant angular velocity.
  • Paths produce regular patterns of convergent/divergent damage.
  • Occur at moderate to high swirl ratios where vortex breakdown has stabilized

Symmetric/Organized Multi-vortex Tornadoes (New)

Symmetric or organized multi-vortex tornadoes are a class of tornadoes characterized by multiple sub-vortices (a smaller, intense vortex that rotates within a larger tornado or storm circulation) that rotate around a common center with a relatively constant angular velocity. These sub-vortices, typically produce a larger amount of circulation, produce distinctive and often highly regular "ground-damage patterns" marked by "alternating zones of convergent and divergent debris deposition." Such tornado structures are most commonly observed at moderate to high swirl ratios, a regime in which vortex breakdown has stabilized and the flow organizes into a persistent set of secondary vortices rather than a single, unstable core. page

Asymmetrical/ Irregular Multi-Vortex Tornadoes (Original)

  • Rapid transitions between 2, 3, or 4 vortices.
  • Subvortices vary in size and speed.
  • Strong asymmetry in damage swaths.

Asymmetrical/Irregular Multi-Vortex tornadoes (New)

Asymmetrical or irregular multi-vortex tornadoes are characterized by rapidly shifting its vortex patterns in which two, three, or even four sub-vortices can form, merge, or dissipate in a quick progression. These individual vortices differ in both size and rotational speed, creating a highly dynamic and unpredictable structure. As a result, the tornado’s damage path often shows strong asymmetry, with irregular swaths of destruction that reflect the uneven intensity and movement of the subvortices.
