Resolvent Analysis: A Revolutionary Technique for Understanding Turbulent Flows

May 20, 2023 by Oliver Khan Leave a Comment

Welcome back. This week, I have prepared a topic that will hopefully be both interesting and exciting. We will cover a computational technique called resolvent analysis that allows us to understand how to best control a fluid flow so that it acts in a desirable way. The specific problem can be outlined as follows: For the last eight decades, most aircraft have flown at high … [Read more...] about Resolvent Analysis: A Revolutionary Technique for Understanding Turbulent Flows

Cash Cows, Golden Geese, and American Livestock Production: The Case for Restraint

April 30, 2023 by Brian Snitman Leave a Comment

American livestock cultivation is on an unsustainable course that will destroy the planet. Currently, the United States devotes 592,000,000 football fields or the landmass of Alaska, Texas, California, and Arizona combined just to raise livestock. That’s 41% of all its land, and in 2019 alone those animals produced greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to the weight of 12,540 … [Read more...] about Cash Cows, Golden Geese, and American Livestock Production: The Case for Restraint

Benzodiazepines for Anxiety Disorders

April 25, 2023 by Kaitlyn Woods Leave a Comment

Benzodiazepines have a variety of uses, but it is commonly used to treat anxiety disorders. This is due to their effect on the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which reduces neuronal excitability and thereby produces a calming effect (ScienceDirect). However, benzodiazepines are also known to produce rebound effects, or the return of the symptoms being treated … [Read more...] about Benzodiazepines for Anxiety Disorders

The Structures of Fluid Flows and Our Efforts to Understand Them

April 25, 2023 by Oliver Khan Leave a Comment

I would like to extend a sincere and warm welcome back to our “Introduction to Flight” blog series. Today, we will return to fluid dynamics, which is a difficult, yet immensely fascinating subject. In our everyday lives, fluid flows are all around us, from the coffee in our cups, to the wind in the trees, to the air we breathe. In the laboratory, we can visualize flows by … [Read more...] about The Structures of Fluid Flows and Our Efforts to Understand Them

The Benefits of Immersive Education

April 25, 2023 by Shanna Finnigan Leave a Comment

It’s a Wednesday in September. I’m in my Marine Biology lecture. I open my pencil bag for a freshly sharpened pencil, and reach down into my bag for a lined piece of paper. But before I can fish out a sheet from my binder, my professor claps her hands at the front of the classroom, signaling for us to look up and give her our attention.  “Today, we’re doing something a … [Read more...] about The Benefits of Immersive Education
