With an applied physics: mechanics degree, you’ll combine physics principles with the design experience of mechanical engineering as you prepare for graduate school or industry work. Become who you’re ...

Stewart McCorkle Faculty Fellow Brett G. Compton coauthored a comprehensive review on the physics of direct-ink writing (DIW), a highly versatile type of 3D printing, which was published on January ...

The flow of fluids is important in many applications ranging from blood flow in the human body to air flow over the wing of a jet aircraft. As a result, this is a required course for mechanical ...

Research in fluid mechanics and aerodynamics includes fluid-structure interactions, unsteady fluid flows, phase-based analysis of fluid flows, rarefied gas flow, particle flow simulation, aerodynamic ...

Surprising oil drop experiments suggest that the quantum world may not be as strange as advertised. For nearly a century, “reality” has been a murky concept. The laws of quantum physics seem to ...

Gain insight into fluid dynamics through numerical simulation. Go beyond theoretical analysis and experimental measurements with the power of reliable computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and heat ...

The Fluid Mechanics & Fluid Power Lab is an academic teaching space for Fluid Mechanics & Fluid Power courses. The Lab includes six pneumatic frame assemblies with various components for engineering ...

Dear FSM Students and Postdocs, The FSM Seminar Series meeting this coming Wednesday, 16 November, at 4:30 pm in Aero 114 will be practice presentations for five students attending the upcoming APS ...

A connection between fluids containing self-propelling particles and the fundamentals of quantum mechanics has been discovered by Benjamin Loewe, Anton Souslov and Paul Goldbart at the Georgia ...

Seven years ago, UC Santa Barbara researchers caught an unexpected phenomenon on film: A pool of red dye that somehow “knew” how to solve a maze filled with milk. Propelled forward by a couple drops ...
