We are living in a world surrounded by liquid and flow, and understanding the principles that govern its movement is vital in our high-tech world. Through mathematical modeling and experimentation, ...

Any student new to the principles of fluid dynamics will be familiar with Bernoulli’s principle and the Venturi effect, where the speed of a liquid or gas increases when the size of the conduit it ...

Mechanical heart valves are vital in restoring cardiac function in patients with valvular disease, and their performance is intimately linked to fluid dynamic phenomena. In these devices, complex flow ...

A University of Oklahoma researcher, Scott Salesky, leads a project funded by a half-a-million-dollar grant from the Department of Energy to improve climate modeling. This research project is one of ...

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 ...

Any student new to the principles of fluid dynamics will be familiar with Bernoulli’s principle and the Venturi effect, where the speed of a liquid or gas increases when the size of the conduit it ...

Interdisciplinary collaboration Kármán Vortex Street is teaching students the principles of fluid dynamics, with dance. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for ...

Scientists used fluid dynamics to learn how to get the most flavor from pour-over coffee. By Katrina Miller More than a billion cups of coffee are consumed daily: French-press, espresso, cold brew, ...

Thermal fluids will inevitably degrade over time when continually exposed to high temperatures, and the ability of thermal fluids to effectively transfer heat will diminish. Typically, the adverse ...
