Computational methods are routinely used to solve fluid flow problems in academia and industry, alike. At Northwestern, cutting-edge and novel Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are ...

Scientists have solved a 50-year-old mechanics problem that could change how statisticians run simulations and draw conclusions. The question is this: Is a 2D liquid different from a 3D liquid? The ...

Flowing granular materials often superficially resemble classical fluids, but due to their finite yield stress and effectively athermal particles, their dynamical behavior is often counter-intuitive ...

Research in fluid mechanics and aerodynamics includes fluid-structure interactions, unsteady fluid flows, phase-based analysis of fluid flows, rarefied gas flow, particle flow simulation, aerodynamic ...

(Nanowerk News) For the last 20 years, scientists have been puzzled by how water behaves near carbon surfaces. It may flow much faster than expected from conventional flow theories or form strange ...

Waves and free surface flows is a research area in fluid mechanics focused on flows with a deformable interface between a liquid and a gas, typically water and air, where surface tension and gravity ...
