New work could help design electronic devices in which heat can be guided in certain directions, minimizing heat loss ...

A fascination with fish gills has led researchers at Cornell to develop a bio-inspired approach to mixing heat and molecules ...

Fluid flow dynamics and valve performance analysis encompass the study of fluid behaviour within valve systems, which is crucial for ensuring efficient, safe, and reliable operation in diverse ...

Water makes up around 60% of the human body. More than half of this water is inside the cells that make up organs and tissues, and much of the remaining water flows in the spaces between cells. MIT ...

Professor of Clean Technology Colin Raston, who invented the vortex fluidic device for research at the Flinders Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology at Flinders University. The Earth’s ...

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 ...

Interstitial fluid flow is closely related to drug delivery and distribution, playing a crucial role in their therapeutic effects on tumours. However, few non-invasive measurement methods are ...

In the 1960s, drillers noticed that certain fluids would firm up if they flowed too fast. Researchers have finally explained why. Fluids can be roughly divided into two categories: regular ones and ...
