Geometry controls momentum flux in the sprinkler problem
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 30, July 2026. SignificanceMany technologies transform wind or water currents into useful forces and motions of structures. Our study makes significant progress toward understanding the physics of hydromechanical devices called sprinklers that rotate by expelling or ...
