Non-Newtonian fluid flows deviate from classical Newtonian behaviour by exhibiting viscosities that vary under different shear conditions. In these fluids the viscosity is not constant but responds ...
Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...
The electro-osmotically modulated hemodynamic across an artery with multiple stenosis is mathematically evaluated. The non-Newtonian behaviour of blood flow is tackled by utilizing Casson fluid model ...
Researchers have developed a programmable meta-fluid with tunable springiness, optical properties, viscosity and even the ability to transition between a Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid. The ...
The complex fluid–structure interaction underlying blood flow through vessels has proved challenging to analyze both ...
If you mix cornstarch and water in the right proportions, you get “oobleck”: something that seems not-quite-liquid but also not-quite-solid. Oobleck flows and settles like a liquid when untouched, but ...
When cornstarch and water are combined in the proper amounts, a substance that seems neither liquid nor solid is formed. When left alone, oobleck flows and settles like a liquid, then stiffens when ...
The following essay is reprinted with permission from The Conversation, an online publication covering the latest research. Those Transportation Security Administration requirements are drilled into ...
