Magnetic fields can dramatically reorganize fluid motion.

Using coupled fluid–thermal–structural simulations, this work shows how MHD effects suppress jets and vortices while altering heat transfer, mass transport and wall stresses.

Ekman spiral (Oceanography 🌊)

Ekman transport is part of Ekman motion theory, first investigated in 1902 by Vagn Walfrid Ekman. Winds are the main source of energy for ocean circulation, and Ekman transport is a component of wind-driven ocean current. Ekman transport occurs when ocean surface waters are influenced by the friction force acting on them via the wind. As the...

Von Foerster equation (Ecology 🏞️)

The McKendrick–von Foerster equation is a linear first-order partial differential equation encountered in several areas of mathematical biology – for example, demography and cell proliferation modeling; it is applied when age structure is an important feature in the mathematical model. It was first presented by Anderso...
