Researchers recently found an elegant solution to a sticky scientific problem in basic fluid mechanics: why water doesn't soak into soil at an even rate, but instead forms what look like fingers of ...

Scientists have solved a 50-year-old mechanics problem that could change how statisticians run simulations and draw conclusions. The question is this: Is a 2D liquid different from a 3D liquid? The ...
