In a research project that has real implications for their regular laboratory work, a pair of physicists at Brown University ...

In a significant advance for semiconductor manufacturing, mechanical engineers created a simulation that makes it easier to choose environmentally friendly water jet and underwater ultrasound ...

The team’s theoretical calculations were largely supported by the results, and showed it’s all about the viscosity. Water reached the 90 percent mark in only a few seconds. Meanwhile, cold maple syrup ...

Tang was surprised by the time it took to drain 90% of the liquid from the wok when poured out. According to Dutta’s calculations, it takes 10 to 15 minutes, Tang said. Since this layer is so thin and ...

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 ...

We continue our exploration of fluids and fluid dynamics. We continue our exploration of fluids and fluid dynamics. How do fluids act when they're in motion? How does pressure in different places ...

The abstract expressionist paintings of Jackson Pollock reveal that the American artist was an intuitive master of the laws that govern the flow of liquids under gravity, according to a ...

Most fluid-dynamics simulations based on the non-slip boundary condition produce good results on large scales. However, previous experiments with capillary tubes have hinted that the molecules in ...
