Study Notes

Fluid Dynamics

  • Viscosity is the concept related to the resistance to flow exhibited by a fluid.

Non-Newtonian Fluids

  • Thixotropic fluids exhibit a decrease in viscosity over time when subjected to constant stress.

Newton's Law of Viscosity

  • Describes the linear relationship between the shear stress and shear rate of a fluid.

Fluid Behavior

  • Newtonian fluids exhibit a constant viscosity regardless of the shear rate.

Material Behavior

  • The yield point is the term for the point at which a material transitions from elastic to viscous behavior under stress.
