Notes:
The instability of the von Kármán vortex streets and the existence of a global Lyapunov function at the special aspect ratio h/l=(1/π)sinh−1(1), are some of the difficulties with the well-known von Kármán model. By consistently applying the principle of genericity, its shown that a new family of near-equilibrium periodic solutions of the von Kármán model for aspect ratios near 0.281... supplies numerous theoretical candidates for observed vortex trails. This set of solutions implies that there is no global Lyapunov functions when h/l≠(1/π)sinh−1(1) which in turn leads to a rich variety of near-equilibrium solutions for the model.
