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

In Physics of Fluids, researchers from Brown University present two related studies about thin film fluid flows in the kitchen: one about the relationship between how long it takes to tip the ...

If you’ve ever whacked the bottom of a ketchup bottle to get that tasty tomato goop flowing, you’ve put some serious physics to work. Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. So are toothpaste, yogurt, ...

The irregular, swirling motion of fluids we call turbulence can be found everywhere, from stirring in a teacup to currents in the planetary atmosphere. This phenomenon is governed by the Navier-Stokes ...

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 ...

The first ever camera footage from inside a centrifuge has revealed a new mystery in the physics of fluids. A centrifuge is a standard piece of laboratory equipment that spins fluid samples at high ...

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 ...

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 ...
