The factor that tips you over the edge from being at risk for a disease to actually developing the disease is not always ...

This video is an introduction to stress and strain, which are fundamental concepts that are used to describe how an object ...

Researchers from Osaka University found that peristaltic pump flow mechanically breaks supersaturation to induce amyloid ...

Researchers from Osaka University find that peristaltic pump action and high shear flow forces promote amyloid nucleation.

In this video we take a look at viscosity, a key property in fluid mechanics that describes how easily a fluid will flow. But ...

Cornelius Wittig, a Ph.D. student in fluid mechanics at KTH, says the study offers a first-ever explanation of how shear stress interacts with biofilms over time to foster slime fouling on ...

In some scenarios, these PAMs behaved like liquids. "Imagine applying a shear stress to water," Zhou says. "There would be zero resistance. Because PAMs have all these coordinated degrees of ...

These were not known shear stress response elements and heat shock proteins (green dots). Specific transcription factors (red dots) underwent large changes in microgravity, including the Wilm's ...

Soft viscoelastic solids are flexible materials that can return to their original shape after being stretched. Due to the ...

Based on the interlocking structure of chainmail, this material has all the best parts of both solids and liquids.

In his shop on the Idaho side of Teton Pass, Halsey Hewson, has a revolutionary featherweight rock sitting on top of an electric fireplace.
