This creates drag and can make your car feel less stable. Vortex generators control that turbulence by energizing the air and guiding it where it needs to go. These fins aren’t just a trendy car ...

Fox and his specialized team of meteorologists, engineers, and pilots tested the capabilities of a drone designed to survive ...

Researchers have discovered that bacterial swarms transition from stable vortices to chaotic turbulence through distinct intermediate states. Combining experiments with bacterial swarms, computer ...

This includes planetary atmosphere/ocean and climate; exoplanets; compact objects and astrophysical disks; and, turbulence, vortex dynamics, and nonlinear waves. These activities utilize advanced ...

The collective motion of bacteria—from stable swirling patterns to chaotic turbulent flows—has intrigued scientists for decades. When a bacterial ...

Using lasers, sensitive cameras and rotating cryostats, they will image the shapes and motion of vortex lines in turbulent superfluid helium at only 0.1 degree above absolute zero. “We expect that ...

Giles and Pettit 1 have shown that, in tubes of small diameters, solutions of additives which reduce turbulent drag can apparently maintain laminar flow at Reynolds numbers greatly above the limit ...
