Abstract: Flow visualization through motion estimation using time-sequenced images plays a significant role in analyzing and understanding complex flow phenomena, and it is widely used in meteorology, ...
What governs the speed at which raindrops fall, sediment settles in river estuaries, and matter is ejected during a supernova? These questions circle around one, deceitfully simple factor: the rate at ...
But after reading Decoherence and Quantum Darwinism, a book published in March 2025 by the physicist Wojciech Zurek, I’m excited by the possibility of an answer that does away with all those fanciful ...
A new interactive web app is making one of the most challenging areas of engineering education easier to understand, allowing university students to actually see how fluid mechanics works rather than ...
A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The invention holds potential for a new generation of mechanical devices that offer ...
Abstract: Accurate estimation of network capacity is very important for Vehicular Infrastructure-based NETwork (VINET) in an urban scene that may involve greatly dynamic typology and complex driving ...
Large vessel occlusion causing acute ischemic stroke is ideally treated with endovascular clot retrieval, which is increasingly being performed via direct aspiration thrombectomy. Successful ...
Quantum mechanics emerged laden with issues and doubts about its foundations and interpretation. However, nobody in the 1920s and 1930s dared to conjecture that research on such issues would open the ...
Researchers at Penn, led by Physics and Astronomy professor Arnold Mathijssen, have discovered ways to achieve quality coffee extraction using fewer beans. Published in “Physics of Fluids,” the ...
Wes Blidy’s Heavy Equipment/Diesel Mechanics students were recently hosted by Mercy Flight to check out the aviation side of mechanics. Mercy Flight was established as the pioneer air-medical service ...
