Mathematicians call the shape of a doughnut a 'toroid'. Physicists call a swirling fluid a 'vortex'. A toroidal vortex, then, is a swirling doughnut of fluid. This video from the Sleek Geeks archive ...

An artistic pressions of a vortex-ring street analogue to the structure of magnetic field of a NDSTP, where the right- and left- handed vortex rings were highlighted by blue and red, respectively. The ...

Light Publishing Center, Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics And Physics, CAS Recently, a major breakthrough in the field of optical toroidal vortices has been achieved and published in ...

Toroidal pulses Air cannons produce visible vortex rings by generating rotating air pressure differences, while electromagnetic cannons emit electromagnetic vortex pulses using coaxial horn antennas. ...

The basic configuration of traditional propellers has not fundamentally changed since the first powered flight by the Wright brothers in 1903. However, as engineers learn more about aerodynamics and ...

A huge cannon which shoots balls of fire does not sound the like safest thing to be playing with in your garden. But that is exactly what two keen scientist have made, using off-the-shelf materials.

Dipole toroidal modes are a unique set of excitations that are predicted to occur in various physical systems, ranging from atomic nuclei to metamaterials. What characterizes these excitations, or ...
