Feeling smarter: the virtual Einstein. (Courtesy: CC-BY/Domna Banakou, Sameer Kishore and Mel Slater Front. Psychol.) Are you feeling a bit down on your cognitive abilities on a Friday afternoon? The ...

From the cosmos to fluid mechanics. ... energy flows differently depending on whether the fluid is flowing on a flat 2-D surface or in a deeper body, ...

Fluid dynamics is one of two branches of fluid mechanics, ... or over a surface. ... because it is more efficient and less energy is lost.

Fluid mechanics is the subdiscipline of continuum mechanics that studies fluids, that is, liquids and gases. It can be further subdivided into fluid statics, the study of fluids at rest, and fluid ...

Many of the fluid dynamicists involved in or familiar with the new research have become convinced that there is a classical, fluid explanation of quantum mechanics. “I think it’s all too much of a ...

It turns out that at the nanoscale, the laws of fluid mechanics are governed by the quantum-mechanical aspects of the interactions between water and carbon, and can give rise to a new phenomenon ...

Energy conservation (energy is conserved) Practical applications; Differential fluid flow analysis Continuity (mass conservation) Navier-Stokes equation (momentum conservation) Flow in pipes Laminar ...

The Johnson–Kendall–Roberts theory is the basis of modern contact mechanics. It describes how two deformable objects adhere together, driven by adhesion energy and opposed by elasticity. Here ...
