In fluid dynamics, hard science often comes with dazzling aesthetic beauty – a fact the American Physical Society highlights annually with a photo/video contest. Here are this year's winners – equal ...

The next time you’re in the shower, try pouring a steady stream of shampoo into an open, flattened palm. See how the thread loops and buckles as it comes into contact with your hand? Physicists who ...

What happens to soft matter when gravity disappears? To answer this, UvA physicists launched a fluid dynamics experiment on a sounding rocket. The suborbital rocket reached an altitude of 267 km ...

Using a combination of computational and robophysical modeling, as well as fluid dynamics experiments, the researchers were able to see for the first time the mechanics of springtail movement. They ...

In a basement laboratory at Haverford College, Monica Kishore and Peter J.J. O’Malley, two undergraduates, have hit a snag in a fluid-dynamics experiment they’re conducting. The two physics majors are ...

NASA astronaut Frank Rubio services the Flow Boiling and Condensation Experiment (FBCE) on the International Space Station, designed, built and tested by Purdue and NASA’s Glenn Research Center. While ...

Studies explore fluids in pancakes, beer, and the kitchen sink. Mechanical engineer Roberto Zenit spent the summer of 2019 trying to solve a problem that now plagues science departments around the ...

The science pros at TKOR explore the Kaye effect with experiments that look completely unreal, revealing fascinating fluid ...
