Using Japan's most powerful supercomputer, researchers reproduced cases of clear air turbulence around Tokyo. They simulated the fine vortices responsible for this dangerous phenomenon. The usefulness ...

This visualization shows moderately large pressure fluctuations within a 35-trillion-grid-point turbulence simulation, including 5x and 25x zoom-in views. The negative fluctuations organize into ...

Turbulence is all around us. It’s in the swirl of coffee and milk in a latte, unfurling along the wings of airplanes and the sides of cars, churning the blood in your heart after the valve snaps ...
