Fluid dynamics encompasses a wide range of phenomena where instabilities lead to the onset of turbulence. From naturally occurring astrophysical flows to engineered systems, instabilities such as the ...

Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782) was a Swiss mathematician and physicist best known for his work involving fluid dynamics. He began studying fluids because he was interested in studying the pressure and ...

University of Chicago physicists working in the nascent field of experimental vortex dynamics have, with unexpected help from a Sharpie marker, achieved the first measurements of an elusive but ...

Researchers show mechanics of how drag on a partially submerged object may be several times greater than drag on a fully submerged object made of the same material. One of the most common and ...

Abby Ledford, a junior pursuing a dual degree in physics and engineering at UNG, works on a fluid dynamics research project under the supervision of Dr. Patrick Bunton, head of the Department of ...
