Fluid dynamics in rotating systems is a research field that explores how rotation and centrifugal forces influence the motion and behaviour of fluids. This area of study is pivotal in understanding a ...

Using unconventional statistical mechanics to understand fluid dynamics, a professor helped solve a 150 year old physics problem of how turbulent fluids move through a pipe. In 1883 Osborne Reynolds ...

A University of Massachusetts Amherst food scientist has been awarded two USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture grants to pursue research designed to benefit the environment and human health ...

Cicadas are the soundtrack of summer, but their pee is more special than their music. Rather than sprinkling droplets, they emit jets of urine from their small frames. For years, Georgia Tech ...

Cicadas, and the way they urinate, offer a 'perfect' lab for understanding fluid dynamics at very small scales, researchers say Scientists studied how cicadas pee. Their insights could shed light on ...

Flow chemistry is revolutionizing the way we design and study macromolecules, offering a powerful, complementary approach to materials discovery—one that seamlessly integrates with modern data-driven ...

Robyn Macdonald is pushing the frontiers of extremely high speed research: hypersonics. A new assistant professor in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the ...

For centuries, expert mezcal distillers have tested for “doneness” by examining the bubbles their brews produce. If the alcohol content isn’t just right—if it’s too low or too high—the bubbles go away ...

It’s said that life can imitate art. This usual means something happens in the real world that plays out like a novel or a ...

When Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh produced "The Starry Night" in 1889, he is believed to have put paint to canvas to illustrate the chaotic conditions inside his own mind. Yet according to a new ...
