In a study published in Physics of Fluids, the researchers used the Navier-Stokes equations—the bedrock math of fluid flows—and a few experiments to investigate the behavior of thin liquid films that ...

Turbulence was thought to carry energy in one fixed direction set by the shape of the flow. A new experiment shows that ...

Physics of Fluids is a peer-reviewed monthly scientific journal on fluid dynamics, published by the American Institute of Physics with cooperation by the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid ...

Living cells cool much slower than our current understanding of heat conduction can explain, according to new research from the University of Tokyo. Researchers have used two techniques—high-speed ...

A connection between fluids containing self-propelling particles and the fundamentals of quantum mechanics has been discovered by Benjamin Loewe, Anton Souslov and Paul Goldbart at the Georgia ...

A real-life forensic puzzle inspired researchers to explore the physics involved, and in Physics of Fluids, they present theoretical results revealing an interaction of the incoming vortex ring of ...

How long does it take for the last drop of milk or oil to drip out of the bottle? US scientists have probed this everyday conundrum.

One of the first things most people do in the morning is turn on a tap in the bathroom. Provided we are not too sleepy, we cannot fail to notice what is often considered to be the greatest unsolved ...

MR-AIV uses physics-informed AI and DCE-MRI scans to infer 3D brain-wide fluid movement in mice without direct flow ...

Sperm cells move through fluids that should stop them almost instantly, yet new research suggests they succeed by exploiting unusual properties of active living matter.
