Cavitation refers to the formation, growth and collapse of vapour-filled cavities in a liquid subject to local pressure reductions. This phenomenon is of considerable importance in fluid dynamics, as ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have unveiled the behavior of single microscopic particles when they unite.

Compressible fluid dynamics, enhanced through the Korteweg framework, has emerged as a pivotal area in the study of complex fluid behaviours. The integration of density gradients into the constitutive ...

Micro- and nano-fluidics, which is the heart of the lab-on-a-chip (LOC) technology, deals with the manipulation of tiny amounts of fluids, from micro- to picoliters. At such scales, the area-to-volume ...

Researchers model the behavior of blood drops during secondary atomization to examine how the phenomenon affects a crime scene. The team examined different starting droplet sizes, confirming their ...

In fluid dynamics, hard science often comes with dazzling aesthetic beauty – a fact the American Physical Society highlights annually with a photo/video contest. Here are this year's winners – equal ...

Researchers at Penn, led by Physics and Astronomy professor Arnold Mathijssen, have discovered ways to achieve quality coffee extraction using fewer beans. Published in “Physics of Fluids,” the ...

This award will support Pak’s research on the dynamics of emulsion drops under electric fields, laying the foundation for improving the demulsification process of oilfield emulsions. Professor On Shun ...
