JUPITER became the world’s fourth fastest supercomputer when it debuted last month. Though housed in Germany at the Jülich ...

Magnetic nanomaterials in magnetic fields can serve as versatile transducers for remote interrogation of cell functions. In this study, we leveraged the transition from vortex to in-plane ...

The mechanism of particle transport in the wake flow mostly depends on the strong interactions between two alternative and successive shedding vortex structures with opposite sign. Particle transport ...

Knowledge of the aircraft wake vortex circulation is very essential for promoting the aviation safety and airport capacity. Under rainy weather condition, the raindrops are driven by the velocity of ...

Abstract This paper presents a fluid–structure coupling model to investigate the vortex-induced vibration of a circular cylinder subjected to a uniform cross-flow. A modified van der Pol nonlinear ...

Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of long-span bridges is frequently observed in various types of bridges at low or medium wind speeds, causing disruption of traffic, fatigue issues of the bridge, and ...

Vlektra has launched a new version of its long-range electric motorcycle, the Velocity 180. The upgraded model, dubbed the Velocity 180 Special Edition, ...

The noninvasive rotary motion of bio-objects for three-dimensional (3-D) observation and posture adjustment has been a great challenge in microrobotics. This letter reports a harmless noncontact 360° ...

Unlike conventional wind turbines, which convert the kinetic energy of blades propelled by moving air into electricity, BWTs generate power through a process called vortex-induced vibration. BWTs take ...

Torrential rains and landslides triggered by a severe winter storm have killed at least 49 people in South Africa’s Eastern Cape province, officials said Wednesday (June 11). The victims include four ...
