Mathematicians studied the flow of human crowds and developed a way to predict when pedestrian paths will transition from ...

points 1 and 2 lie on a streamline, the fluid has constant density, the flow is steady, and there is no friction. Although these restrictions sound severe, the Bernoulli equation is very useful, ...

Neat lanes are the norm at road crossings – until people start veering off at critical angles, then chaos ensues. New maths ...

Have you ever wondered why walking from point A to B can be easy in some places, and incredibly frustrating in others? Well, ...

When a fluid is in motion, it must move in such a way that ... This equation is called the continuity equation for steady one-dimensional flow. For a steady flow through a control volume with many ...

ORNL researchers used quantum computing to model the unsteady flow of liquids and gases over two parallel plates. Computing ...

The equation is given by: The particles are spherical and much larger than the fluid molecules. The fluid is continuous and homogeneous. The particles are in the dilute limit, meaning they do not ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory have tested a quantum computing approach to an old ...

Editor’s note: The Basics department this month is an excerpt from the ISA book Flow of Industrial Fluids – Theory and Equations by Raymond Mulley. Some material in this section may seem self-evident ...

In addition, as the video points out, fluid flow in a pipe is very similar to ... The C term of the Hazen-Williams equation doesn’t depend on the Reynolds number but is only valid for water ...
