Fluid mechanics and rheology of the jumping spider body fluid
نویسندگان
چکیده
We studied the flow and physical properties of hydraulic body fluid spiders. Our results suggest that this fluid, which drives leg extension, is shear-thinning. This interesting characteristic could inspire systems for soft-robotics.

متن کاملMagnetic fluid rheology and flows
Major recent advances: Magnetic fluid rheology and flow advances in the past year include: (1) generalization of the magnetization relaxation equation by Shliomis and Felderhof and generalization of the governing ferrohydrodynamic equations by Rosensweig and Felderhof; (2) advances in such biomedical applications as drug delivery, hyperthermia, and magnetic resonance imaging; (3) use of the ant...
متن کاملRespiratory fluid mechanics.
This article covers several aspects of respiratory fluid mechanics that have been actively investigated by our group over the years. For the most part, the topics involve two-phase flows in the respiratory system with applications to normal and diseased lungs, as well as therapeutic interventions. Specifically, the topics include liquid plug flow in airways and at airway bifurcations as it rela...
متن کاملFluid Mechanics : Numerical Methods
where σ is the stress tensor, ǫ = 12 (∇u +∇u) T is the strain tensor, f is a body force per unit mass (gravity is a typical example), qT is a volume source (it may model chemical reactions, Joule effects, radioactive decay, etc.), and jT is the heat flux. In addition to the above three fundamental conservation equations, one may also have to add L equations that accounts for the conservation of...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Fluid Mechanics
When anticommuting Grassmann variables are introduced into a fluid dynamical model with irrotational velocity and no vorticity, the velocity acquires a nonvanishing curl and the resultant vorticity is described by Gaussian potentials formed from the Grassmann variables. Upon adding a further specific interaction with the Grassmann degrees of freedom, the model becomes supersymmetric.
