Here n is defined to be 1.414 so that fluid behaves as a shear-thickening fluid.
Two-phase Z-factor is defined as a ratio between the real fluid volume and the volume when that fluid behaves like ideal gas.
A so-called Bingham fluid behaves like a rigid material below a given threshold yield strength, but like a viscous material above this threshold.
Nearly constant storage modulus in a small strain regime shows that the magnetic field induces a stable network of the solid components and the fluid behaves like solid.
The fluid-structure interaction was considered using a quasi-static approach, where the fluid behaves as a mass attached to the tank walls.
This did not occur for the more viscous starch solutions where the TTI and fluid behaved similarly regardless of the mixing quality, which was significantly affected by changing fill height and rotational speed.
For large Deborah numbers, the fluid movement is too fast for elastic forces to relax: in this case the fluid behaves like an elastic material.
In the adult's concept, volume is not synonymous with the shape of a container but is based on a model of how fluids behave.
Microfluidics refers to a field of research that looks at how fluids behave differently at the microscale and how those differences can be exploited for particular use-cases.
These "complex fluids" behave like a solid when at rest but can flow like a liquid when they're pushed on.
