To uncover new fluid flow laws, researchers turn to drinking straws Discovery offers promise for medical and industrial applications Date: March 29, 2023 Source: New York University Summary: A ...

New research has uncovered how cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in the brain play an important role in driving the spread of ...

Illustrating the effects of fluid velocity This example shows what happens to the pressure level inside a hose assembly as the pressure-control device response and fluid bulk flow velocity vary.

In the shipbuilding industry, where there are high demands for precision and reliability of components, fluid polishing ...

physiology The Mysterious Flow of Fluid in the Brain A popular hypothesis for how the brain clears molecular waste, which may help explain why sleep feels refreshing, is a subject of debate. No one ...

Irregular fluid flow through the spinal column brought on by gene mutations is linked to a type of scoliosis that can affect humans during adolescence, a new study in zebrafish suggests. Also ...

In this review we consider evidence for novel fluid flow in carbon nanotubes and pipes that approaches frictionless transport.

While this very-low-friction fluid conduit was achieved with a static arrangement of magnets, the researchers found that they could manipulate the flow by altering the magnetic field configuration.

Cerebrospinal fluid flow was suppressed while blood flow increased, and then surged into the brain as blood flow ebbed when the stimulation stopped, the team reports March 30 in PLOS Biology.

Compressible fluid flow through control valves will inevitably cause some form of flow-induced vibration in the fluid system. Identifying the type and cause of the vibration requires detective work.
