Pictured: Water whirls. Solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations make it possible to predict the behaviour of liquids under a variety of conditions, from the motion of the oceans, to the flow of blood ...

The hydrodynamics of distillation trays and columns is a critical area of research in chemical engineering, underpinning the efficient separation of chemical mixtures. This field explores the ...

Researchers modeled the role of hydrodynamics in liquid-liquid transitions of a single-component system. They showed that domain formation is related to the density upon transition, which can be ...

A steadily increasing amount of fluid flow problems in naval architecture is dealt with by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (Rans) or Euler equations. These “field methods”, which ...

An interdisciplinary team presents a study of the dynamics of buoyant spheres at the air-water interface. Their work reveals complex hydrodynamics involved in forming horizontal air cavities and the ...

Hydrodynamics is the branch of continuum mechanics that studies the motion of incompressible or weakly compressible fluids and the forces associated with that motion. It is governed fundamentally by ...

Our research is in the field of nonlinear waves, lying at the nexus of applied mathematics and physics. Mathematically, the nonlinear waves that we investigate are solutions to nonlinear, dispersive ...

HYDRODYNAMICS Busy as they are sending a man to the fringes of space and the to bottom of the sea, routing disease and building bigger and better nuclear bombs. 20th centry scientists still find time ...
