Quantum Chromodynamics has yielded a huge amount of understanding about how the nucleon and other hadrons are built from quarks and gluons, the fundamental degrees of freedom in QCD.

The accurate simulation of separated flows induced by impinging shock waves is an argument of great interest for the aeronautical and aerospace industry.

Innovative design strategies of marine propellers are based on bio-inspired solutions.

Contra-rotating propellers aim at improved performance, in comparison with the conventional design of isolated propellers.

The present involves numerical simulations of a capsule and supersonic parachute re-entering the Martian atmosphere at supersonic regimes using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) coupled with a wall-model to describe the near-wall dynamics.

A computational method able to quantitatively predict spin relaxation in magnetic molecules and individuated the main physical ingredients that can potentially lead to room temperature spin operations

Despite the leading role of Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) in wall turbulence research, several fundamental questions still stand.

The study aims to advance AI to enhance human performance and prevent errors across various sectors such as automotive, surgical, and manufacturing, where human errors lead to significant financial losses and safety concerns.

A recent model of terrestrial planet formation relies on a gas pressure maximum ring near Venus’ orbit that results in convergent migration of planetary embryos.
