Studying crowd dynamics could inform strategies that help to prevent dense gatherings from becoming dangerous.

In a new study published in Nature Physics, researchers have developed the first controlled method for exciting and observing ...

How about something with a bunch of fun fluid dynamics and a tinge of higher-than ... Have we got the project for you: [Robert Hart]’s vortex cannon design. We’ve seen vortex cannons before ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered that the structure of vortices generated around a swimmer's feet changes with increasing speed during underwater undulatory swimming. Specifically, ...

Their results revealed that during underwater undulatory swimming, the vortex structure in the down-kick-to-up-kick transition phase changed as swimming speed increased. Specifically, with rising ...

The method is not commonly used for computational fluid dynamics and fluid simulations ... As a result, they obtained much more preservation of the vortex and visual details that many previous ...

In order to explore these and related problems, we introduce a novel small Rossby-number approximation to the primitive equations applied to a simple model of the tropopause in continuously stratified ...

Professor James Cho (joint with Applied Mathematics) works on astrophysical-geophysical fluid dynamics. This includes planetary atmosphere/ocean and climate; exoplanets; compact objects and ...

A team of Japanese researchers has discovered a method to control Kelvin wave excitation in superfluid helium-4. This ...
