Mechanics from St Petersburg University have developed a mathematical model that takes into account non-equilibrium processes occurring at high velocities in the gas flow and on the surface. This model can be used for detailed modeling of the interac.....»»
Modular flow cells for sustainable chemistry
Electrochemical processes like water electrolysis will become increasingly important in the future in light of climate change and the resultant need for an energy and raw materials transition. The Fraunhofer Institute for Microengineering and Microsy.....»»
How does "MAD" accretion form around a black hole?
An international scientific team has revealed for the first time the magnetic field transport processes in the accretion flow of a black hole and the formation of a "MAD"—a magnetically arrested disk—in the vicinity of a black hole......»»
Greenhouse gases are changing air flow over the Pacific Ocean, raising Australia"s risks of extreme weather
After a rare three-year La Niña event brought heavy rain and flooding to eastern Australia in 2020-22, we're now bracing for the heat and drought of El Niño at the opposite end of the spectrum......»»
Fluid dynamics researchers shed light on how partially submerged objects experience drag
One of the most common and practically useful experiments in all of fluid dynamics involves holding an object in air or submerging it fully underwater, exposing it to a steady flow to measure its resistance in the form of drag. Studies on drag resist.....»»
Automate or informate? Firms must invest in specific types of IT to improve working capital management
The management of working capital—or a firm's current assets minus its current liabilities—aids organizations in making efficient use of their existing assets and maximizing cash flow......»»
