The commonplace phenomenon of liquid drops falling from a surface is—perhaps surprisingly—not yet fully understood by ...

Computational methods are routinely used to solve fluid flow problems in academia and industry, alike. At Northwestern, cutting-edge and novel Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are ...

Researchers discovered that ink in a soap-and-milk experiment follows the path of least resistance due to surface tension ...

The combustion efficiency in a car engine, for example, or the production of chemicals in large-scale chemical reaction plants depends crucially on the dynamics of the gases and liquids. “These are ...

Artificial intelligence aboard aircraft could help prevent terrifying drops in altitude. In a new study, an international ...

Fluid dynamics is the study of the motion of liquids, gases and plasmas. Flow is dependent on the intrinsic properties of the matter itself, such as compressibility, viscosity and density.

The Fluid and Aerodynamics Research Group addresses challenges arising from the fundamental nonlinearity of fluids, and their interaction with the natural and human environment. We are building on a ...

Artificial intelligence aboard aircraft could help prevent mid-air stalls and terrifying drops in altitude. In a new study, ...

A team of Italian researchers has developed a new method for cooking eggs to perfection. They should not only be tastier, but ...

An empirical analysis of oil flowing down an inclined fibre has suggested how the structure and dynamics of droplet formation ...
