Scientific progress is not usually straightforward. Researchers pursue and abandon lines of inquiry. Results languish. Theories take decades to cohere. But sometimes the accumulation of scientific ...

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

“Almost all nonlinear fluid equations are kind of derived from the Euler equations,” said Tarek Elgindi, a mathematician at Duke University. “They’re the first ones, you could say.” Yet much remains ...

Chezy and Manning developed equations that are used to determine the average volumetric flowrate in open channels. This article explains a laboratory method that was developed and tested to further ...

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

The flow of fluids is important in many applications ranging from blood flow in the human body to air flow over the wing of a jet aircraft. As a result, this is a required course for mechanical ...

In pressure relief systems, accurately estimating temperature changes during fluid flow is vital for relief piping ...
