Axisymmetrization and vorticity-gradient intensification of an isolated two-dimensional vortex through filamentation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the evolution of an isolated elliptical vortex in a weakly dissipative fluid and derive a simple geometrical formula relating the rate of change of the aspect ratio of a particular vorticity contour to its orientation relative to the streamlines.
