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 ...

In this video, people use all kinds of ways to travel across “oobleck,” a non-Newtonian fluid that has the properties of both a liquid and a solid. In short, if you apply sudden force (like stomping ...

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 ...

When the world's expert on pygmy mammoths asks you a question about ketchup, you have to find the answer. The context was the article I wrote last week about non-Newtonian fluids, where researchers at ...

Explore how a corn starch putty, a non-Newtonian fluid, is revolutionizing pothole patching solutions for cities. Ketchup and mayonnaise are shear-thinning fluids. When sitting on your counter, they ...

One of these is not like the others: honey, water, ketchup, and blood. The answer? Water, because the other three are all non-Newtonian fluid. When Isaac Newton first defined the properties of an ...

The harder they’re hit, the stronger they are. They stop bullets and let people walk on custard. They’re non-newtonian fluids. Here’s a tip for obsessive lovers, smothering parents, and over-friendly ...

Look at the cup, mug, or bottle of water/coffee/juice/whatever other liquids you have right now that I won’t judge you for. Whatever you’re drinking, it’s ...
