Urban drainage systems have increasingly incorporated vortex flow mechanisms to efficiently dissipate hydraulic energy while minimising structural damage and regulating discharge. Vortex drop shafts ...

Japanese scientists at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), Teikyo University of Science, and Juntendo University have found -- in animal studies -- a close relationship between ...

An international collaboration led by veterinary scientists at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), Japan, has found that size of a dog heart affects both vortex flow and pressure ...

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 ...
