As a dense suspension of piezoelectric nanoparticles shear thickens due to a transition from frictionless (gray) to frictional (red) particle–particle interactions, friction-induced piezoelectricity ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 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 ...

The complex fluid–structure interaction underlying blood flow through vessels has proved challenging to analyze both ...

Encapsulated microbubbles (EMBs), tiny gas-filled bubbles coated in lipid or protein shells, play a central role in ...

Create a fascinating substance named after Dr. Seuss's story "Bartholomew and the Oobleck"! This strange material acts like a liquid when handled gently but becomes solid when force is applied. It's a ...
