University of Chicago physicists working in the nascent field of experimental vortex dynamics have, with unexpected help from a Sharpie marker, achieved the first measurements of an elusive but ...

It may contain inaccuracies due to the limitations of machine translation. The robotic system ITT, designed by an MIT research team to perform fluid dynamics experiments with precision and speed.

What happens to soft matter when gravity disappears? To answer this, UvA physicists launched a fluid dynamics experiment on a sounding rocket. The suborbital rocket reached an altitude of 267 km ...

The next time you’re in the shower, try pouring a steady stream of shampoo into an open, flattened palm. See how the thread loops and buckles as it comes into contact with your hand? Physicists who ...

NASA astronaut Frank Rubio services the Flow Boiling and Condensation Experiment (FBCE) on the International Space Station, designed, built and tested by Purdue and NASA’s Glenn Research Center. While ...

Chinese researchers have been building a body of work on how solid rocket motors behave when ignited deep underwater, where extreme hydrostatic pressure fundamentally changes the way exhaust gases ...

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 ...
