From the rain drops rolling down your window, to the fluid running through a COVID rapid test, we cannot go a day without observing the world of fluid dynamics. Naturally, how liquids traverse across, ...

Substances can exist in three states of matter - solid, liquid and gas. All substances are made from particles, and the forces between the particles are different in solids, liquids and gases. The ...

Researchers from multiple academic institutions collaborated on a study published last month, in which they imaged and investigated systems of active liquid crystals in three dimensions and ...

Originally described in the context of particles drifting through liquid, Levy walk has been found to accurately describe a very wide range of phenomena, from cold atom dynamics to swarming bacteria.

Engineers at Northwestern University have unveiled the behavior of single microscopic particles when they unite. The findings reveal an enigmatic, perfectly synchronized dance. The research team ...

Northwestern Engineering researchers have developed a synthetic system that mimics how bacteria move and self-organize, paving the way for new research. For years, scientists and engineers have ...

Scientists have developed an automated tool for mapping the movement of particles inside cells that may accelerate research in many fields, a new study in eLife reports. The movements of tiny ...

Mark Fell (l) collaborated with Jonathan Howse to turn "Brownian motion" into music The random dance of tiny particles bouncing around in liquid has been turned into a unique sound display. The ...
