Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782) was a Swiss mathematician and physicist best known for his work involving fluid dynamics. He began studying fluids because he was interested in studying the pressure and ...

University of Chicago physicists working in the nascent field of experimental vortex dynamics have, with unexpected help from a Sharpie marker, achieved the first measurements of an elusive but ...

Abby Ledford, a junior pursuing a dual degree in physics and engineering at UNG, works on a fluid dynamics research project under the supervision of Dr. Patrick Bunton, head of the Department of ...

Fluid dynamics encompasses a wide range of phenomena where instabilities lead to the onset of turbulence. From naturally occurring astrophysical flows to engineered systems, instabilities such as the ...

The next time you’re in the shower, try pouring a steady stream of shampoo into an open, flattened palm. See how the thread loops and buckles as it comes into contact with your hand? Physicists who ...

Researchers show mechanics of how drag on a partially submerged object may be several times greater than drag on a fully submerged object made of the same material. One of the most common and ...

This is a pretty simple experiment to create nifty interior fountains — although maybe not as cool as the ones in this video. Take a container, like a wine glass or a bowl, hold it upside down, lower ...
