From the chariot wheels crossing the Gobi Desert in 3,000 BCE to the intricate bronze clockwork of the Antikythera mechanism ...
Fluid dynamics in rotating systems is a research field that explores how rotation and centrifugal forces influence the motion and behaviour of fluids. This area of study is pivotal in understanding a ...
A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The ...
On 19 November 1924, a ship slowly manoeuvred through the Port of Kiel. On board were Ludwig Prandtl and Albert Betz from the Aerodynamic Research Institute (AVA) in Göttingen – a predecessor of today ...
