Vorticity, a measure of the local rotation or swirling motion in a fluid, has long been studied by physicists and mathematicians. The dynamics of vorticity is governed by the famed Navier-Stokes ...

In high school science class, we learned that plugging a cable into an electrical circuit sets off a flow of electrons, powering everything from our lights to our phones. Traditionally, we've ...

Researchers have investigated the fluid dynamics of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) moving through gastric mucus using a 3D model and a magnetic field. H. pylori uses its corkscrew-like tail to move ...

Yield stress fluids are materials that behave as elastic solids under low applied stresses but flow like viscous liquids once a critical threshold is exceeded. Their microstructure typically comprises ...

In turbulent fluids, mixing of the components happens easily. However, in more viscous fluids such as those enclosed within cellular compartments, the intermixing of particles and molecules is much ...

By modeling dehydration-driven fluid pressure, a new study links deep fluids to where megathrust earthquakes end and slow slip begins.

Scientists have discovered something that seems almost impossible: under the right conditions, ordinary liquids can snap apart like solid objects. In experiments, researchers found that when certain ...

Open micro-valley chip for viscosity-driven glioblastoma invasion study. Schematic illustration of an open two-layer microfluidic membrane platform for investigating glioblastoma (GBM) cell invasion ...
