Scientists from Tokyo Metropolitan University have re-engineered the popular Lattice-Boltzmann Method (LBM) for simulating ...

For two centuries, engineers have trusted a simple rule to predict how heat flows through solids, from jet-engine blades to ...

Brian Teears explains how fire dynamics has changed as a result of modern construction and, thus, why officers and firefighters must account for this in terms of how heat, air and water interact.

Researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo, have developed a method to control the direction of heat flow in crystals. This miniature device could eventually be used ...

Any experienced firefighter or officer will tell you that firefighting requires dedication to drilling and learning. For good reason, hands-on drills that are performed in the fire station are front ...

Biophysicists have demonstrated how heat flows through rock fissures could have created the conditions for the emergence of life. Life is complicated. What is true for our everyday existence also ...

Researchers in the US have revealed that heat does not flow as expected between different materials when they are in a super-hot, ultra-dense state known as high-energy-density plasma. The experiment, ...
