Superfluids are intriguing states of matter in which particles behave like a giant collective wave, allowing them to flow ...

Technological advances in controlling and manipulating fluids have enabled the experimental realization of acoustic analogues of gravitational black holes. A flowing fluid provides an effective curved ...

In a study published in Physics of Fluids, the researchers used the Navier-Stokes equations—the bedrock math of fluid flows—and a few experiments to investigate the behavior of thin liquid films that ...

Purdue University researchers are designing and building an experiment that will operate during a test flight of a new type of reusable rocket to be launched by aerospace company Blue Origin LLC. The ...

Thermocapillary convection in annular pools is a hydrodynamic model for the crystal growth by Czochralski method. When a radial temperature gradient is established via heating or cooling the central ...
