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, ...

A $1 million prize awaits anyone who can show where the math of fluid flow breaks down. With specially trained AI systems, ...

If you mix cornstarch and water in the right proportions, you get “oobleck”: something that seems not-quite-liquid but also not-quite-solid. Oobleck flows and settles like a liquid when untouched, but ...

The first ever camera footage from inside a centrifuge has revealed a new mystery in the physics of fluids. A centrifuge is a standard piece of laboratory equipment that spins fluid samples at high ...

The following essay is reprinted with permission from The Conversation, an online publication covering the latest research. Those Transportation Security Administration requirements are drilled into ...

Manufacturing complex fluids industrially often involves mechanical forces that introduce internal stress and damage ...

Mathematicians have finally succeeded in unifying the laws of physics that govern the motions of particles at different scales. Their efforts resolve a question set by mathematician David Hilbert in ...
