A team of New York University scientists has created a gear mechanism that relies on fluids to generate rotation. The ...

NASA ISS Science Officer Mike Fincke began working with the Fluid Merging Viscosity (FMVM) experiment. This physical science experiment is studying viscosity -- a property of fluids that causes them ...

University of Chicago physicists working in the nascent field of experimental vortex dynamics have, with unexpected help from a Sharpie marker, achieved the first measurements of an elusive but ...

Scientists have demonstrated that the viscosity of fluids present in faults has a direct effect on the intensity of earthquakes. Fault zones play a key role in shaping the deformation of the Earth's ...

They coil. They swing. They fold. They meander. Streams of honey, oil and other viscous fluids can do things that physicists still don't fully understand If you like honey on your toast at breakfast, ...

Students will experiment with three different liquids to determine the relative viscosity and flow rate of each liquid. Mount Nyiragongo is a volcano in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, 18 ...
