You don’t have to live near Hoover Dam to tap hydropower. Experts at Belgium’s Turbulent have developed a Vortex turbine that maximizes low-flow water from rivers and canals that also have low height ...

Turbulent ball: William Irvine, Takumi Matsuzawa and colleagues have used this apparatus to track turbulence with lasers and high-speed cameras. (Courtesy: Takumi Matsuzawa) Researchers in the US have ...

Vortex identification and turbulent flow analysis have evolved considerably from early vorticity‐based techniques to modern, quantitative methods. Traditionally, researchers used measures such as ...

The Vortex Particle Method (VPM), a meshless vortex flow simulation approach, is gaining traction for its efficient simulation of unsteady vortex wakes evolution that is shed by aircrafts, rotors and ...

The quest to reduce skin friction drag in supersonic flight has long focused on the turbulent boundary layer. Micro-blowing techniques show significant potential, but the pore-scale interaction ...
