Scope
Physics of Fluids (PoF) is a preeminent journal devoted to publishing original theoretical, computational, and experimental contributions to the understanding of the dynamics of gases, liquids, and complex or multiphase fluids. Topics published in PoF are diverse and reflect the most important subjects in fluid dynamics, including, but not limited to: -Acoustics -Aerospace and aeronautical flow -Astrophysical flow -Biofluid mechanics -Cavitation and cavitating flows -Combustion flows -Complex fluids -Compressible flow -Computational fluid dynamics -Contact lines -Continuum mechanics -Convection -Cryogenic flow -Droplets -Electrical and magnetic effects in fluid flow -Foam, bubble, and film mechanics -Flow control -Flow instability and transition -Flow orientation and anisotropy -Flows with other transport phenomena -Flows with complex boundary conditions -Flow visualization -Fluid mechanics -Fluid physical properties -Fluid–structure interactions -Free surface flows -Geophysical flow -Interfacial flow -Knudsen flow -Laminar flow -Liquid crystals -Mathematics of fluids -Micro- and nanofluid mechanics -Mixing -Molecular theory -Nanofluidics -Particulate, multiphase, and granular flow -Processing flows -Relativistic fluid mechanics -Rotating flows -Shock wave phenomena -Soft matter -Stratified flows -Supercritical fluids -Superfluidity -Thermodynamics of flow systems -Transonic flow -Turbulent flow -Viscous and non-Newtonian flow -Viscoelasticity -Vortex dynamics -Waves
