An example of 2D viscous flow around a simple solid boundary. A solid
cylinder is impulsively started at the right of a channel bounded by
solid walls with a slip boundary condition.
Adaptive refinement is used based on the vorticity.
After an initial growth phase, a classical Bénard–von Kárman
vortex street is formed.
