Turbulence is generally nothing to worry about, even though it can feel unsettling. There are several different types of ...

By Mackenzie Devereux Predicting turbulence is incredibly difficult because it’s a classic example of a “chaotic system,” in which seemingly small changes lead to unpredictable outcomes. Owen ...

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 ...

Accurate and fast calculation of heat flow (heat transport) due to fluctuations and turbulence in plasmas is an important issue in elucidatingthe physical mechanisms and in predicting and controlling ...

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 ...

Turbulence experienced by aircraft can turn a smooth flight into a bumpy one – and even have dangerous consequences. And it is all caused by the movement of air in the atmosphere. Airplanes achieve ...

Cancelled job rocks Seatrium offshore wind business; Singapore adopts fixed-cost envelope approach to adopt sustainable aviation fuel Read more at The Business Times.

Climate change could be making turbulence worse. Social media is making it more apparent. Videos from flights rocked by turbulence have become a mainstay on social media, where videos of people ...

Turbulence is an unavoidable facet of flying, but does it jostle a 12-seat Gulfstream harder than a 200-seat Boeing? For anxious flyers, that distinction matters. However, first let's smooth the ride ...
