New method of fluid gating has implications for drug delivery, power generation, and other uses

Recent research suggests people may want to allow more space during windy conditions

New studies show how scientists have honed a technique for handling tiny, soft particles using precisely controlled fluid flows that act as gentle microscopic hands

Findings show how to make confined bubbles develop uniformly, instead of in their usual scattershot way
