An international research team is attracting the attention of experts in the field with computational results on the behavior of ring polymers under shear forces: They showed that for the simplest ...

The irregular, swirling motion of fluids we call turbulence can be found everywhere, from stirring in a teacup to currents in the planetary atmosphere. This phenomenon is governed by the Navier-Stokes ...

Mathematicians have recentlysolved a problem that has eluded scientists for over 125 years, bridging three key theories that describe the motion of fluids. This milestone addresses a long-standing ...

The turbulent motion of a tumbling river or the outflow from a jet engine is chaotic: that is, it contains no obvious pattern. But according to a new study, regular patterns can emerge from the ...

When the greatest mathematician alive unveils a vision for the next century of research, the math world takes note. That’s exactly what happened in 1900 at the International Congress of Mathematicians ...

I received a B.S. in both Mathematics and Physics from the University of Texas at Austin before coming to the University of Colorado Boulder to pursue a PhD in Pure Mathematics. My focus was studying ...

Advances in linear motors and hybrid actuators are pushing motion systems toward higher precision, speed and efficiency. A key part of achieving this performance is the integration of drives with ...

Physicists show how patterns can emerge from chaos in turbulent fluids. The turbulent motion of a tumbling river or the outflow from a jet engine is chaotic: that is, it contains no obvious pattern.
