New Form of Mixing in Turbulent Sedimentation Physical Review Letters journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

“If the three-body problem is complex, imagine the 100,000-body problem.” Unprecedented simulation of sediment-filled fluids mixing uncovers new behaviors and enables new studies of supernovae, chemical refining, and beyond. @CFF_OIST @PhysRevLett oist.jp/news-center/ne…

Prof. Jeff Morris @JeffMorrisLab visited us last week to discuss about the rheology of dense suspensions.
