Flow Visualization of Spinning and Nonspinning Soccer Balls Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Various studies have been conducted on the aerodynamic characteristics of nonspinning and spinning soccer balls. However, the vortex structures in the wake of the balls are almost unknown. One of the main computational fluid dynamics methods used for the

On the beta-drift of an initially circular vortex patch [PDF]
The nonlinear inviscid evolution of a vortex patch in a single-layer quasi-geostrophic fluid and within a background planetary vorticity gradient is examined numerically at unprecedented spatial resolution.

Fast numerical evaluation of flow fields with vortex cells [PDF]
A vortex cell (in this paper) is an aerodynamically shaped cavity in the surface of a body, for example a wing, designed specially to trap the separated vortex within it, thus preventing large-scale unsteady vortex shedding from the wing.

Towards a Serious Game to Help Students Learn Computer Programming
Video games are part of our culture like TV, movies, and books. We believe that this kind of software can be used to increase students' interest in computer science.

Background Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) represent a temporal “snapshot” of a patient’s cancer and changes that occur during disease evolution. There is an extensive literature studying CTCs in breast cancer patients, and particularly in those with ...

Profiling protein expression in circulating tumour cells using microfluidic western blotting
Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are rare cells found in the blood of certain cancer patients. Here, the authors develop a cytometry tool that appends a microfluidic western blot to a CTC isolation workflow and apply it to profile a panel of proteins in ...

Viscosity and Vortex Formation in a Liquid Placed in A Rotating Cylindrical Vessel
The free fall of steel balls of different diameters in viscous liquids placed in a cylindrical vessel at rest or rotating at a constant rate as well as the vortex generation in a liquid rotating in a cylindrical vessel were experimentally studied.

Inhomogeneous Gradient Poiseuille Flows of a Vertically Swirled Fluid [PDF]
An exact solution is proposed for describing the steady-state and unsteady gradient Poiseuille shear flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in a horizontal infinite layer.

Optical vortices generically arise when optical beams are combined. Recently, we reported how several laser beams containing optical vortices could be combined to form optical vortex loops, links and knots embedded in a light beam (Leach et al 2004 ...
