Flow visualisation and analysis techniques constitute a critical foundation for understanding complex fluid dynamics across a range of scientific disciplines, from climate research to engineering ...

Flow visualization is the process of making the physics of fluid flows (gases, liquids) visible. At the University of Colorado we have a course for mixed teams of engineering and fine arts photography ...

The purpose of this work was to develop a high speed flow visualization system which could be used to observe the behavior of the air flow in a steady flow cylinder head assembly. This type of ...

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The U.S. Geological Survey is starting a three-week project Tuesday in hopes of minimizing future lava flow hazards by assessing the surface of Kilauea volcano using a ...

In the grand contest between air and land, we tend to think flying has a speed advantage over driving. There's less friction, no road to overcome. But physics is a funny thing, and helicopters have ...

A new research study has revealed that fish scale arrays generate a streaky base flow on the surface of the animal which yields important clues into reducing drag - the aerodynamic force that opposes ...

Multidimensional simulations of coupled intake port/valve and in-cylinder flow structures in a pancakeshape combustion chamber engine are reported. The engine calculations include moving piston, ...
