Slime exhibits some crazy unusual properties, like viscoelasticity, because it's a non-newtonian fluid. We can use non-newtonian properties to make the fluid "defy gravity" and climb up a spinning rod ...
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, ...
Quicksand and other non-Newtonian fluids share properties with both liquids and solids. Non-Newtonian fluids consist of tiny grains suspended in liquid, with the appearance of a solid or gel. Stand on ...
Hot transfer – In the heat transfer fluid laboratory of the Institute of Future Fuels at the DLR site in Cologne-Porz, researchers are investigating innovative materials, components and processes that ...
Surprising oil drop experiments suggest that the quantum world may not be as strange as advertised. For nearly a century, “reality” has been a murky concept. The laws of quantum physics seem to ...
