If you’ve ever spent time writing beat poetry about container ships chugging their way into and out of harbors, “nimble” or “fast” will be unlikely to make it into your finely crafted written words.

The study of hypersonic boundary layer transition and instability encompasses the complex processes by which a thin, near-wall flow region shifts from a smooth, laminar state to a highly chaotic, ...

Convective motions driven by core cooling have a structure that is three-dimensional and time-dependent. Consequently, the dynamics of the interaction between this flow and an underlying dense layer ...

It seems like only a couple of months since Boundary Layer announced its $5 million-ish round of financing, but the company hasn’t been resting on its laurels. Today, its founders told me it signed up ...

The state and properties of boundary layer (BL) flows are very important issues for the design and operation of high performance air- and ground- vehicles as well as for many industrial flow ...

A body moving through a fluid experiences a drag force, which is usually divided into two components: frictional drag, and pressure drag. Frictional drag comes from friction between the fluid and the ...

Why has the seafloor around Bermuda been mysteriously high for tens of millions of years, long after its volcanoes went ...
