This video demonstrates how to model rigid objects using springs in a Python physics simulation. We explore how spring forces approximate rigidity, analyze motion and stability, and visualize the ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it. Might two bent crystals pave the way to ...

A team of researchers from the University of Zurich and the NCCR PlanetS is challenging our understanding of the solar system planets' interior. The composition of Uranus and Neptune, the two ...

Right now, the world’s best weather forecast model is a General Circulation Model, or GCM, put together by the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. A GCM is in part based on code that ...

We are developing an innovative sensor system inspired by harbor seal whiskers, aiming to revolutionize underwater detection and tracking. The team's interdisciplinary approach integrates expertise in ...

Researchers employ machine learning to more accurately model the boundary layer wind field of tropical cyclones. Conventional approaches to storm forecasting involve large numerical simulations run on ...

Artificial intelligence is sliding into physics classrooms so smoothly that it can feel like a harmless upgrade rather than a ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Companies and governments have regularly invested in solar farms and lost money when weather degradation unexpectedly cut panel lifetime short. As electricity generated from ...

Plasma physics is the study of charged particles and fluids interacting with self-consistent electric and magnetic fields. It is a basic research discipline that has many different areas of ...
