THE exploitation of trapped vortices and flow deceleration by the aortic valve to ensure maximum efficiency and to make possible laminar flow 1,2 suggests a similar mechanism for the atrio-ventricular ...

From stirring milk in your coffee to fearsome typhoon gales, rotating turbulent flows are everywhere. Yet, these spinning currents are as scientifically complex as they are banal. Describing, modeling ...

The math behind even the simplest ocean waves is notoriously uncooperative. A team of Italian mathematicians has made major ...

Abstract: In both large-eddy simulation (LES) with actuator line model (ALM) representations of wind turbine blades and in analysis of data from a GE field campaign, we have previously shown three ...

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. Example ...
