From your morning milk to cutting-edge spacecraft design, the science of fluid flow shapes our daily lives and future technologies. Recent research blends kitchen experiments, high-speed droplet ...

Now, artificial intelligence (AI) tools are providing powerful new ways to address long-standing problems in physics. “The ...

A University of Manchester researcher has developed a machine-learning method to spot sudden changes in fluid behavior, known as bifurcation points, before traditional simulations fail. The approach ...

The Lab Report: Every week, The Lab Report takes a deep dive into the (research) lives of students and professors outside the classroom. Somewhere along the Mississippi River, a blissful current whips ...

Blood may be thicker than water, but in a narrow enough tube, both liquids flow like treacle. This sluggish behaviour arises because, as you reduce the size of the channel, friction between the liquid ...

Instead of working against the environment, researchers suggest environmental sensors become a part of it.

Current drilling and fracturing methods can't extract oil and natural gas very well, recovering an estimated 5 percent of oil and 20 percent of gas from shale. That's partly due to a poor ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A blood vessel is an elastic tube, and its changing shape affects the properties of the fluid flowing inside it. Conversely, the fluid flow itself also affects the shape of the ...
