Research into gas‐liquid flow dynamics in vertical pipelines has revealed that the interplay between the gas and liquid phases becomes considerably more complex when surfactants are introduced.

The study, published January 13 in Physical Review Letters, replaces the metal or plastic cogs of conventional gears with controlled flows of liquid. In their experiments, ...

"The UN estimates that by 2050, common bacterial infections could kill more people than cancer," says Arnold Mathijssen, a ...

Ordinarily, if you want liquid to flow in only one direction through a pipe, that pipe needs to be equipped with a flap-type valve – which could fail. Now, however, scientists have created a new type ...
