Symposium Ocean Dynamics and Turbulence With a rapidly changing climate and the growing challenges it brings, the need to understand fundamental oceanic and turbulent processes has never been more urgent. Organizers: Marine Physics and Engineering Unit Complex Fluids and Flows Unit Fluid Mechanics Unit 07 April 2026 - 10 April 2026
Research Update Paradox of rotating turbulence finally tamed with world-class ‘hurricane-in-a-lab’ Scientists have solved a long-standing contradiction in fluid dynamics, setting a new baseline for theoretical and practical research on turbulence.
Research Update Hidden Turbulence Discovered in Polymer Fluids New research shows that two types of turbulence coexist in everyday fluids like shampoos and ketchup, challenging long-held assumptions.
Research Update Tiny heroes and innovative technology are here to fight back against antibiotic-resistant biofilms Researchers show that antibiotic-infused silver nanoparticles can effectively break down biofilms while unveiling a new sensing method to assess antimicrobial activity.
Research Update Surprising properties of elastic turbulence discovered Revealing elastic turbulence has more in common with classical Newtonian turbulence than expected.
Research Update Synthetic droplets cause a stir in the primordial soup A synthetic droplet may give researchers clues on how simplest forms of life on the planet could navigate their surroundings.
