Intrinsic viscosity can help reveal the molecular weight and size - as well as the branching of - branching of polymer chains. Key Distinctions Between Viscosity and Intrinsic Viscosity. Definition: ...

A new atomistic method links viscosity to the full vibrational spectrum of atoms and molecules using non-affine lattice dynamics (NALD), enabling accurate viscosity calculations even near the ...

Equation 1: Definition of shear stress. The shear rate (𝞬 ̇) quantifies how quickly the fluid layers deform or "shear" over time, typically described as the velocity gradient perpendicular to the ...

First Report on Viscosity and Plasticity. Prepared by the Committee for the Study of Viscosity of the Academy of Sciences at Amsterdam. (Verhandelingen der Koninklijke Akademie van Wetenschappen ...

An international team of scientists involving the UPF Laboratory of Molecular Physiology, has discovered how cancer cells exposed to high viscosity environments change the way they move to improve ...

Extracellular viscosity rises with the degradation of large proteins secreted by both normal and cancer cells and with the compromised drainage of lymphatic vessels due to primary tumor growth.

An international team of scientists has discovered how cancer cells exposed to high viscosity environments change the way they move to improve their invasiveness and favor metastases. The studies ...
