Could invisibility cloaks become a reality? New research brings this science fiction concept a step closer, with a breakthrough software package that simulates how waves interact with complex ...

Time variations of (black) zonal and (red) meridional winds along trajectories of LODEWAVE 3. Solid lines represent LODEWAVE data, while dashed lines represent PANSY radar data at an altitude of 18.5 ...

This image is a simulation of a kind of acoustic wave called a Rayleigh-Bloch wave. The stripes of light and dark areas represent the “peaks" and “troughs" of the waves and are shaped by their ...

A research group has successfully developed a wave-based acoustics simulation that can make highly accurate time-domain estimations of acoustics in large-scale interior spaces (such as concert halls) ...

OLYMPIA, Wash. — It has been 320 years since the last major earthquake hit the Cascadia subduction zone. The Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) wants to help communities along ...

Using a hypothetical large earthquake off the coast of Washington, a new set of simulations shows why it’s so important to quickly head to higher ground. The Washington Department of Natural Resources ...
