Shear Thickening Fluid: Enhanced Viscosity Under Stress
Shear thickening fluid is a non-Newtonian fluid that increases in viscosity when subjected to shear stress. This behavior is due to the formation of particle clusters that impede flow, resulting in a gradual increase in resistance. These fluids are used in various applications, such as protective coatings, energy absorption devices, and wearable armor, due to … Read more
