Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a branch of physics that utilizes numerical methods and algorithms to analyze and predict the behavior of fluids and gases under various conditions. This field ...

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 ...

Fluid dynamics is the study of fluid behaviour in motion and is core to a plethora of applications in engineering, biological systems, physics, and meteorology, to name but a few fields. Fluid ...

Balance the flow: Simulations reveal that the gut alternates between different patterns of contraction to optimize nutrient absorption while regulating the growth of bacteria inside the gut. (Courtesy ...

Warm water pelagic snails don’t get much attention, but they certainly should. The snails move between ocean surface waters at night where they feed to their daytime sleeping quarters several hundred ...

As wind energy scales up, researchers study the fluid dynamics challenges. Twenty years ago, wind energy was mostly a niche industry that contributed less than 1% to the total electricity demand in ...
