A new physics-based analytical model can accurately predict ferroelectric behavior under real-world, complex voltages, ...

The standard model of physics is one of the most successful scientific theories in existence, but do we need it all?

Typhoons pose significant threats, with sudden, dangerous waves that endanger ships, offshore platforms and coastal ...

Right now, the world’s best weather forecast model is a General Circulation Model, or GCM, put together by the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. A GCM is in part based on code that ...

Two theoretical physicists – including a Nobel laureate – have solved a mathematical problem that flummoxed them for 10 years ...

A physics theory that's proven useful to predict the crowd behavior of molecules and fruit flies also seems to work in a very different context—a basketball court. A model based on density functional ...

For the past half century or so, a theory known by the understated name of the Standard Model has dominated the field of particle physics. This theory provides us with a detailed description of the 17 ...
