A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The invention holds potential for a new generation of mechanical devices that offer ...

As the UK experiences a drop in temperatures, icy mornings have become a common sight, leading to cars freezing up. But it's not just windscreens and doors that are affected, as your washer fluid ...

Nearly 200 years ago, the physicists Claude-Louis Navier and George Gabriel Stokes put the finishing touches on a set of equations that describe how fluids swirl. And for nearly 200 years, the ...

Hurricane Helene left a trail of devastation and destruction last year, dumping 40 trillion gallons of water on the Southeast. It leveled houses, sent trees crashing and left millions without power.

When two fluids don't mix well, they sometimes form strange patterns called "viscous fingering," or Saffman-Taylor instability. Studying these patterns can help scientists understand how to design ...

After two and a half years we have enough data to form a clearer picture about who is using AI, what they are using it for, what they think about it, and what it means for learning. What do students ...

The move is a means to set an industry standard for liquid cooling, which dramatically lowers electricity and water use, requires much less floor space and capex, and increases processing power.

Dual-clutch transmissions — DCTs to their friends — are pretty impressive pieces of technology. Sort of a cross between a regular old bolt-action manual and an automatic, a DCT uses two clutches ...
