Traditionally, most industries would utilize Newtonian fluids—which have a constant viscosity—for such processes. However, many are now adopting viscoelastic fluids, which can behave as both ...

“What type of material are we dealing with? “The model protein-RNA condensates we created in the lab exhibit material properties of a viscoelastic Maxwell fluid, with behaviors similar to commonly ...

Scientists have developed a new method that improves dispensing of viscoelastic fluids - a vital process for circuit board production, 3D printing and other industrial applications. The scientists ...

But, the researchers noted, the fluid inside the reproductive tract is not thin like water, it has viscosity, and also in parts is a viscoelastic fluid, which means it is elastic, like silly putty ...

It is a puzzle long known among experts and very relevant in many industrial production processes: a jump discontinuity in the rise velocity of gas bubbles in so-called viscoelastic fluids.

So what are viscoelastic fluids? If we consider everyday fluids like water or honey, it is a safe assumption that their viscosity does not change much – it is a material constant. Those fluids are ...
