Physics-informed neural network has emerged as a promising approach for solving partial differential equations. However, it is still a challenge for the computation of structural mechanics problems ...

Ph.D. candidate Petr Steindl creates complex structures of light using single photons. As a teenager, he wanted to study Czech poetry but decided on quantum physics. "Looking back, I am glad I ...

In August this year, a cohort of leading experts and young researchers from physics, mechanics, biomechanics, locomotion, materials science, engineering, architecture and art converged in Brussels for ...

Can light behave like a whirlwind? It turns out it can—and such "optical tornadoes" have now been created in an extremely small structure by scientists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of ...

Physicists and educationalists have many theories about why so few girls study physics. Valerie Jamieson goes back to school and asks female pupils what they really think. Vanessa Bennett, Callie ...
