The stability of steady, helical vortex filaments in a tube

The nonlinear conditions for the development of helical vortex filaments in a circular tube are considered. The helical flow is assumed to be irrotational, except in a vortex filament of infinitesimal core area. By introducing an appropriate image for this helical vortex filament, the boundary condi...
