Physicists have devised a new model to account for the discomfort that airline passengers know all too well.

Plasma is a state of matter that emerges when a gas is heated to sufficiently high temperatures, prompting some electrons to ...

One-dimensional turbulence (ODT) modelling represents a powerful stochastic framework for simulating turbulent flows while reducing computational complexity. By focussing on a single spatial dimension ...

Using Japan's most powerful supercomputer, researchers reproduced cases of clear air turbulence around Tokyo. They simulated the fine vortices responsible for this dangerous phenomenon. The usefulness ...

A 2D slice of the world's largest turbulence simulation, revealing the fractal structure of the density, shown in yellow, black and red, and magnetic field, shown in white. Astronomers have developed ...

To prevent the worst turbulence in the first place, pilots and dispatchers plan and use every resource at their disposal.

Particle dynamics approach offers faster and more comprehensive analysis of spiral defect chaotic systems and interventions ...

University of Reading research shows that clear-air turbulence, which is invisible to aircraft, is set to get worse.
