Vortex dynamics in cylindrical containers encapsulate a range of complex fluid behaviours driven by rotational motion. In these geometries, the interplay between centrifugal forces and viscous effects ...

An Australian-led study has provided new insight into the behaviour of rotating superfluids. A defining feature of superfluids is that they exhibit quantised vortices – they can only rotate with one, ...

Researchers have managed to visualize the vortex tubes in a quantum fluid, findings that could help researchers better understand turbulence in quantum fluids and beyond. Nobel laureate in physics ...

Nobel laureate in physics Richard Feynman once described turbulence as "the most important unsolved problem of classical physics." Understanding turbulence in classical fluids like water and air is ...
