Contemporary sports analytics is focused on the analysis of performance data. At Northwestern we propose to change the state of the art by adding new metrics based on, hitherto scarce, physics-based ...

Fluid dynamics is the study of fluid behaviour in motion and is core to a plethora of applications in engineering, biological systems, physics, and meteorology, to name but a few fields. Fluid ...

From ketchup to quicksand, non-Newtonian fluids have long fascinated and puzzled scientists. Unlike ordinary fluids, their flow properties change depending on how much force is applied, but the ...

Picture a drop of liquid running down a smooth incline. How does it move? It’s a seemingly simple question, but the mechanisms that control the behavior of the contact line, the curve that is the ...

AI models trained on physics are slashing the time needed for complex engineering simulations, enabling faster design iterations across industries like automotive, aerospace, and materials science. By ...

The Computational Engineering Physics Laboratory at Western Michigan University (WMU) engages in computational research in multidisciplinary engineering physics. Funding from various government and ...

Researchers from BIFOLD and Google DeepMind have created MD-ET, a transformer-based molecular dynamics model that achieves state-of-the-art results without embedding physical laws like energy ...

Jackson Pollock, famous for his deceptively random-seeming drip paintings, took advantage of certain features of fluid dynamics years before physicists thought to study them. "His particular painting ...

For physics majors starting EPAD track in the freshman year The Engineering Physics and Applied Design (EPAD) Physics concentration combines physics courses with applied science courses to create a ...
