  2. Newtonian fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtonian_fluid

    While no real fluid fits the definition perfectly, many common liquids and gases, such as water and air, can be assumed to be Newtonian for practical calculations under ordinary conditions. However, non-Newtonian fluids are relatively common and include oobleck (which becomes stiffer when vigorously sheared) and non-drip paint (which becomes ...

  3. Fluid and crystallized intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_and_crystallized...

    Tasks measuring fluid reasoning require the ability to solve abstract reasoning problems. Examples of tasks that measure fluid intelligence include figure classifications, figural analyses, number and letter series, matrices, and paired associates. [7] Crystallized intelligence (g c) includes learned procedures and knowledge. It reflects the ...

  4. Liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid

    The viscous behavior of a liquid can be either Newtonian or non-Newtonian. A Newtonian liquid exhibits a linear strain/stress curve, meaning its viscosity is independent of time, shear rate, or shear-rate history. Examples of Newtonian liquids include water, glycerin, motor oil, honey, or mercury. A non-Newtonian liquid is one where the ...

  5. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    This will result in another viscosity value if the fluid is a non-Newtonian fluid such as paint, but it will give the same viscosity value for a Newtonian fluid such as water, petroleum oil or gas. If another parameter like temperature, T {\displaystyle T} , is changed, and the experiment is repeated with the same force, a new value for ...

  6. Thixotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thixotropy

    Mānuka honey is an example of a thixotropic material.. Thixotropy is a time-dependent shear thinning property. Certain gels or fluids that are thick or viscous under static conditions will flow (become thinner, less viscous) over time when shaken, agitated, shear-stressed, or otherwise stressed (time-dependent viscosity).

  7. Power-law fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-law_fluid

    In continuum mechanics, a power-law fluid, or the Ostwald–de Waele relationship, is a type of generalized Newtonian fluid. This mathematical relationship is useful because of its simplicity, but only approximately describes the behaviour of a real non-Newtonian fluid.

  8. Newtonian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtonian

    Newtonian telescope, a type of reflecting telescope; Newtonian cosmology; Newtonian dynamics; Newtonianism, the philosophical principle of applying Newton's methods in a variety of fields; Newtonian fluid, a fluid that flows like water—its shear stress is linearly proportional to the velocity gradient in the direction perpendicular to the ...

  9. Bingham plastic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bingham_plastic

    Figure 1. Bingham Plastic flow as described by Bingham. Figure 1 shows a graph of the behaviour of an ordinary viscous (or Newtonian) fluid in red, for example in a pipe. If the pressure at one end of a pipe is increased this produces a stress on the fluid tending to make it move (called the shear stress) and the volumetric flow rate increases proportionally.
