The Navier-Stokes equations represent a cornerstone of fluid dynamics, providing a mathematical framework to describe the motion of viscous fluids. These nonlinear partial differential equations ...
Stochastic fluid dynamics extends classical fluid mechanics by incorporating randomness and uncertainty directly into the governing equations. This approach utilises stochastic differential equations ...
A 115-year effort to bridge the particle and fluid descriptions of nature has led mathematicians to an unexpected answer. In 1900, the great mathematician David Hilbert presented a list of 23 unsolved ...
While order often devolves to chaos, sometimes the reverse is true. Turbulent fluid, for example, has a tendency to spontaneously form a tidy pattern: parallel stripes. Though physicists had observed ...
The following is an extract from our Lost in Space-Time newsletter. Each month, we hand over the keyboard to a physicist or mathematician to tell you about fascinating ideas from their corner of the ...
