As an inter-disciplinary group, we seek to extend capability in analysis, simulation and measurement of fluid flows, drawing on expertise in Earth Sciences, Applied Mathematics, Engineering ...

Scientists discovered plate anomalies in Earth's mantle using seismic wave analysis. These mysterious structures challenge ...

This "kiss and capture" mechanism offers a fresh perspective on planetary formation, particularly about Pluto and its largest moon Charon.

“Together, we have a globally unique infrastructure to investigate fluid physics. We can observe fluids on scales as different as they can possibly be, i.e. from individual droplets of liquid on the ...

Earth's liquid outer core conducting fluid is an iron-nickel alloy containing light elements such as sulfur, with high electrical conductivity. Due to the extreme temperature and pressure ...

Cyclic changes of fluid pressure in fault zones can induce slow-slip events that advance in the direction of fluid flow, even when the faults are stable.

It helps to visualize this: Earth’s inner core is a solid ball that is surrounded by a fluid outer core. This is how it can rotate at a different pace compared to the planet’s outer layers ...
