Why can airplanes fly?
What is the actual aerodynamic reasoning behind airplane wings? How is its lift generated? We need to look back on its pressure distribution, and discuss the Joukowski theorem and the Kutta condition.
Multistate behavior of turbulence
Is it possible to see multiple states in turbulence?
The history of soliton waves
It is a weird thing to see a soliton wave on any water surface, which is not continuous and no nearby period. How can such wave live under the physical world?
How does the surface structure change the wetting status?
The wetting behavior is often seen in the environment, and some creatures are able to avoid it. A famous example is the lotus leaf, where droplets do not wet the surface when raining. How is wetting works in nature? Can we utilize it wisely?
Microexplosion in droplets
What is microexplosion and why does it happen in droplets?
Instability in stratified environment
How does instability behave in stratified environment
Why are waves always parallel to the shore?
Waves are usually observed to be parallel to the shore. Is that a natural thing?
Tacomas Narrows Bridge
The breakdown of Tacomas Narrows Bridge is a famous disaster in engineering history. What is the reason behind it?
