Mechanical analogy for the wave-particle: helix on a vortex filament
The small amplitude-to-thread ratio helical configuration of a vortex filament in the ideal fluid behaves exactly as de Broglie wave. The complex-valued algebra of quantum mechanics finds a simple mechanical interpretation in terms of differential geometry of the space curve. The wave function takes...
