From ketchup to quicksand, non-Newtonian fluids have long fascinated and puzzled scientists. Unlike ordinary fluids, their flow properties change depending on how much force is applied, but the ...

A physics-informed neural network called TrajectoryFlowNet predicts spatiotemporal flow fields and long-range particle ...

Physics of Fluids is a peer-reviewed monthly scientific journal on fluid dynamics, published by the American Institute of Physics with cooperation by the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid ...

The Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT) has developed a new cubic equation of state (EOS) that provides a physical justification for a mathematical structure that the ...

In a reward-free touchscreen game, Japanese macaques favored a button that made a puppet pop up in somewhat unpredictable spots, like curious humans. Six zoo orangutans heard laughter before learning ...

Researchers show how the judicious choice of fluid filler can suppress the turbulent flow that severely hinders the “top-kill” plugging of a blown-out oil well. Figure 1: (Top left) Kelvin-Helmholtz ...

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 ...

A study inspired by street performers making gigantic soap bubbles led to a discovery in fluid mechanics: Mixing different molecular sizes of polymers within a solution increases the ability of a thin ...

Electrons flow like a viscous fluid through a 2D channel with perfectly smooth sidewalls, offering a new platform to test solid-state and fluid dynamics theories. Thicker than honey. This image from a ...

Brake fluid is essential for your car, but it doesn't last forever. Here's how long it takes for an open bottle of brake ...
