In particular we consider applications to 3-dimesional fluid dynamics, including the case ofa twisted flux tube and the fluid rotation. In this case use is made of Da Rios equation to constrain the fluid.Integrals on the Cartan connection are shown to be related to the integrals which represent the total Frenettorsion and total curvature. By analogy with the blue phases twisted tubes in liquid crystals, non-Riemanniangeometrical formulation of the twisted flux tube in fluid dynamics is obtained. A theorem by Ricca and Moffatton invariant integrals for the Frenet curvature is used to place limits on the Cartan integrals.

Geodesic motion is shown to be torsionless. Vorticity is shownto be expressed in terms of abnormalities of the congruence, which is analogous to the result recenly obtained[Garcia de Andrade,PRD(2004)], where the vorticity of the superfluid plays the role of Cartan contortion vectorin the context of analog gravity. 2006 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46436630 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.4A Vol.36
