Ship waves, the complex patterns generated as vessels displace water, remain a subject of significant scientific and engineering interest. Traditionally described by Kelvin’s theory of ship wakes, ...

Granular systems, comprising ensembles of discrete particles, exhibit strikingly rich dynamics when subjected to mechanical disturbances. In these systems, strong nonlinear interactions give rise to ...

For more than 50 years, scientists have dreamed of seeing the hidden patterns that govern the motion of nonlinear waves—the unpredictable ripples that shape tsunamis, tides, and turbulent flows. Now, ...

Researchers can now observe the phonon dynamics and wave propagation in self-assembly of nanomaterials with unusual properties that rarely exist in nature. This advance will enable researchers to ...

Electron microscope image of the superfluid wave tank used in the experiments (blue) coupled to an optical fibre which brings laser light in and out of the device. The zoom-in shows the photonic ...

The dynamic response of the capsule-airbags system during interaction with both regular and irregular waves at Ux=12m/s is systematically analyzed across three characteristic phases: initial impact, ...
