Have you ever wondered what would happen if you dropped a sphere of jelly on floor? The answer to this and other pressing questions in fluid dynamics have appeared on the arXiv preprint server as a ...
Knots are everywhere—from tangled headphones to DNA strands packed inside viruses—but how an isolated filament can knot ...
A video shared by the Twitter account Amazing Physics on Oct. 27, 2021, showed a person squirting two dots of ink, one green and one red, into a clear vat of fluid. That person then grabbed a crank ...
Slime exhibits some crazy unusual properties, like viscoelasticity, because it's a non-newtonian fluid. We can use non-newtonian properties to make the fluid "defy gravity" and climb up a spinning rod ...
If you’ve ever whacked the bottom of a ketchup bottle to get that tasty tomato goop flowing, you’ve put some serious physics to work. Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. So are toothpaste, yogurt, ...
Computer scientists at the University of California San Diego have developed a method for generating highly realistic computer-generated images of fluid dynamics in elements such as smoke. This ...
