New work could help design electronic devices in which heat can be guided in certain directions, minimizing heat loss ...

Water makes up around 60% of the human body. More than half of this water is inside the cells that make up organs and tissues, and much of the remaining water flows in the spaces between cells. MIT ...

Professor of Clean Technology Colin Raston, who invented the vortex fluidic device for research at the Flinders Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology at Flinders University. The Earth’s ...

National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke investigators at the National Institutes of Health traced meningeal ...

Interstitial fluid flow is closely related to drug delivery and distribution, playing a crucial role in their therapeutic effects on tumours. However, few non-invasive measurement methods are ...

The more we discover about the natural world, the more we find that nature is the greatest engineer. Past research implied that liquids can only be transported in fixed direction on species with ...

For centuries, mathematicians have sought to understand and model the motion of fluids. The equations that describe how ripples crease the surface of a pond have also helped researchers to predict the ...

Microfluidics is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from physics, chemistry, and engineering to create devices that can process and analyze minuscule volumes of liquids. Often, ...
