Computer models efficiently and accurately simulate the magnetic responses of ferrofluids by considering only the fluid's surface. The spiky structure that erupts from the smooth surface of a ...

Researchers at Aalto University have shown that a nanoparticle suspension can serve as a simple model for studying the formation of patterns and structures in more complicated non-equilibrium systems, ...

Magnetic convection in ferrofluid systems arises from the coupling of thermal gradients and magnetic forces within a colloidal suspension of magnetisable nanoparticles. When a temperature difference ...

Magnetohydrodynamics of ferrofluid flows explores the interaction between magnetic fields and fluid motion in suspensions of ferromagnetic nanoparticles. These fluids combine the governing equations ...

Ferrofluid is a liquid with nano-sized iron particles that was developed by NASA in the 1960s. Artist Eric Mesplé has been experimenting with this magnetic liquid in his art for the past dozen years, ...

Ferrofluid was invented by a NASA engineer in an attempt to develop a method for manipulating rocket fuel in zero gravity -- but you probably know it as that cool black liquid that morphs into ...
