Researchers using a high-speed camera have captured the moments a fluid reacts like a solid, through a new method of fluid observation under pressurized conditions. They examined fluids that have a ...

Tangled chains lead to shear thickening Simulations showing the emergence of chains of particles in a suspension. The image on the left shows isolated chains in a suspension with a relatively low ...

Welcome to the home page of the first International Conference on Mechanics of Complex Solids and Fluids (ICMCSF) that will take place on May 17th till 22th 2015 in Lille, France. Scope Engineering ...

Squishy science: Top view of the rings after compression and lateral deformation. The contrast has been increased to highlight the orange parts underlying the image analysis. (Courtesy: Poincloux and ...

Scientists shed new light on the chaotic motion of a solid body moving through a fluid. They claim to have discovered two basic mechanisms that lead to chaotic motion of the body as it interacts with ...

Shini is very excited to start talking about Fluids. In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini is very excited to start talking about Fluids. You see, she's a Fluid Dynamicist and Mechanical ...

We continue our exploration of fluids and fluid dynamics. We continue our exploration of fluids and fluid dynamics. How do fluids act when they're in motion? How does pressure in different places ...

One of the smaller mysteries of science is the non-Newtonian liquid. While its study may not be as glamorous as making robots or exploring space, there are still mysteries that surround this amazing ...

Rheology, high-speed imaging, and velocimetry combined to characterize how some roller-based nozzles perform so well with non ...

If you’ve ever whacked the bottom of a ketchup bottle to get that tasty tomato goop flowing, you’ve put some serious physics to work. Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. So are toothpaste, yogurt, ...
