For centuries, the complex mathematics describing the movement of liquids and gases—from the air rushing over an airplane’s wing to the turbulent currents of the ocean—have stumped the world's most ...

In fluid dynamics, hard science often comes with dazzling aesthetic beauty – a fact the American Physical Society highlights annually with a photo/video contest. Here are this year's winners – equal ...
