The moment when fluid reacts like a solid – Tech Explorist
Swansea University researchers from the College of Engineering have captured the moments a fluid reacts like a solid through a new method of fluid observation under pressurised conditions.
A new study observes fluids with a solid response to stress, a phenomenon called Discontinuous Shear Thickening (DST). This is when liquid abruptly thickens and becomes solid when disturbed. Such intricate patterns often develop in granular materials, porous media, and complex fluids such as foams, gels, and pastes.
