Imagine a "smart fluid" whose internal structure can be rearranged just by changing temperature. In a new study published in Matter, researchers report a way to overcome a long-standing limitation in ...

Sweat rarely smells on its own. Body odour develops when bacteria on the skin break down compounds in sweat and release volatile chemicals that evaporate into the air.

Water droplets have a unique ability: They can leap from a surface on their own. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as when a surface repels water or when heat is involved, such as a water ...

Cells rely on biomolecular condensates to coordinate essential biological processes without surrounding membranes. These droplet-like dynamic assemblies control the way in which DNA is turned into ...

Abstract: Stream functions, derived from inviscid fluid flow theory, offer a natural method for obstacle avoidance in robotics. Like other continuous feedback methods, they introduce stagnation points ...

This repository collects some codes implemented to simulate inviscid fluids by means of the ISF technique, firstly developed by Albert Chern, adopting Finite Element Methods exploiting the FEniCSx ...

PyFracX simulate the re-activation and propagation of fluid-induced frictional/shear ruptures allowing also full opening of the fracture. The X hints that the code can simulate multiple intersecting ...

The course gives an introduction to fluid mechanics i.e. the mathematical description of the motion of liquids and gases (fluids). The course gives a continuum description of fluids, which is based on ...
