The secret sauce, according to Patel, is the computational fluid dynamics that set up the relationships between racks and CRAC units and algorithm that dynamically controls the flow and temperate of the air ... "We do computer fluid dynamics models that take hours to figure out the optimal flow. What has been missing is taking thousands of sensors and managing the actuators [CRAC units].". (ZDNet)
Body armor with greater ballistics resistance is the aim of the research being carried out by Youqi Wang, associate professor of mechanical engineering at Kansas State University, with support from two U.S. Department of Defense agencies. The Army Research Lab and Army Research Office awarded Wang grants totaling 350,000 for her new approach to how next-generation ballistic-resistant fabrics/textiles/materials might be designed.

Flow is maintained throughout, as Tim Hecker apparently understands that ever-tricky notion of fluid dynamics. He breaks up motifs (see "Palimpsest") with churning ebbs and digressions but keeps together the pinnacle suite, "Whitecaps of White Noise." And while Hecker has always been an adept craftsman, Harmony reveals his mastery of the idiom. (City Pages)
LS-P systems are performance-tuned for computational fluid dynamics (CFD), crash/impact analysis and structural analysis applications. What is interesting about these two announcements is that both vendors are combining offerings from a number of vendors and packaging software with hardware. (EnterpriseStorageForum)
