Truth is that complex mathematical concepts can generate strangely
attractive pictures (no joke intended!!). I am not a mathematician, but can
I say that they help visualize or solve the concept/problem?

Maybe You should go a little forward and visualise "Reileigh-Benard Cell"
it's the same equations (used instead of Navier Stokes and other
hydrodynamic equations). I have made that visualization in Mathematica 5.1,
but it's only 2D, in Pov-ray it should look great.
