Complex fluid

Index Complex fluid

Complex fluids are binary mixtures that have a coexistence between two phases: solid–liquid (suspensions or solutions of macromolecules such as polymers), solid–gas (granular), liquid–gas (foams) or liquid–liquid (emulsions). [1]

Deformation (mechanics)

Deformation in continuum mechanics is the transformation of a body from a reference configuration to a current configuration.

Density

The density, or more precisely, the volumetric mass density, of a substance is its mass per unit volume.

Earthquake

An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the shaking of the surface of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves.

Emulsion

An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible (unmixable or unblendable).

Fluid dynamics

In physics and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids - liquids and gases.

Foam

Foam is a substance formed by trapping pockets of gas in a liquid or solid.

Granular material

A granular material is a conglomeration of discrete solid, macroscopic particles characterized by a loss of energy whenever the particles interact (the most common example would be friction when grains collide).

Mixture

In chemistry, a mixture is a material made up of two or more different substances which are mixed.

Nonlinear system

In mathematics and science, a nonlinear system is a system in which the change of the output is not proportional to the change of the input.

Phase (matter)

In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of space (a thermodynamic system), throughout which all physical properties of a material are essentially uniform.

Shaving cream

Shaving cream or shaving foam is a frothy cosmetic cream applied to body hair, usually facial hair, to facilitate shaving.

Stress (mechanics)

In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other, while strain is the measure of the deformation of the material.

Structural load

Structural loads or actions are forces, deformations, or accelerations applied to a structure or its components.

New!!: Complex fluid and Structural load · See more »

Suspension (chemistry)

In chemistry, a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture that contains solid particles sufficiently large for sedimentation.

New!!: Complex fluid and Suspension (chemistry) · See more »

Temperature

Temperature is a physical quantity expressing hot and cold.
