Abstract
The interactions of vortices shed from two coaxially joined cylinders with a diameter ratio of 0.51 have been studied in a water channel, at Reynolds numbers, based on the large cylinder diameter, between 63 and 1100. Spectral and wavelet analyses of streamwise velocity measurements have identified the formation of three distinct spanwise vortex-shedding cells away from the far ends of the two cylinders, including a low-frequency cell, which appeared in a cyclic manner near the step and behind the large cylinder. Analysis of flow-visualization images has identified two distinct types of vortex connection at cell boundaries: some vortices in a cell of lower frequency connected across the boundary to counterparts in the cell of higher frequency, while others formed a half-loop to connect to a vortex shed from the opposite side of the cylinder in the same cell. Additional cross-boundary vortex connections balanced the total vortex strengths. The interactions of two types of streamwise vortices, identified as edge vortices and junction vortices, with spanwise vortices have also been documented.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
