Structural distortion and relaxation are central to any liquid flow. Their full understanding requires simultaneous probing of the mechanical as well as structural and dynamical response. We provide the first full dynamical measurement of the transient structure using combined coherent X-ray scattering and rheology on electrostatically interacting colloidal fluids. We find a stress overshoot du...

ethylammonium propionate with high polarity and ionic conductivity was synthesized andcharacterized with 1hnmr and ir. this ionic liquid which is prepared from readily available startingmaterial in high yield shows reasonably high at viscosity and heat stability up to 150 °c. this ionicliquid is able to dissolve most of organic solvents due to the hydrogen interaction between ionicliquid and th...

The viscosity and enthalpy relaxation in the Ge15Te85 eutectic liquid are investigated using a combination of parallel plate rheometry conventional modulated differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). results these measurements provide evidence for similar temperature dependence shear timescales this liquid. However, is found to be more than an order magnitude slower process. supercooled state ab...

the presence of particles in liquid-solid fluidized beds enhances the bed heat transfer, because the movement of the particles leads to an increased turbulence in the system. moreover, the violent movement of the particles has a positive effect on fouling of the heat transfer surface. the aim of this investigation was to perform systematic measurements of bed voidage and heat transfer coefficie...

The effective shear and bulk viscosity, as well as dynamic viscosity, describe the rheological properties of the ceramic body during the liquid phase sintering process. The rheological parameters depend on the physical and thermo-mechanical characteristics of the material such as relative density, temperature, grain size, diffusion coefficient, and activation energy. Thermal behavior of the cer...

BACKGROUND The currently low implantation rate after embryo transfer (ET) is partially attributed to technical aspects, such as catheter type, catheter load, placement of catheter tip and physician skills. METHODS Mock ET simulations were conducted with a transparent laboratory model of the uterine cavity. The catheter was loaded with alternating air and coloured liquid media. The transfer pr...

Understanding nonequilibrium glassy dynamics is of great scientific and technological importance. However, prediction of the temperature, thermal history, and composition dependence of nonequilibrium viscosity is challenging due to the noncrystalline and nonergodic nature of the glassy state. Here, we show that the nonequilibrium glassy dynamics are intimately connected with the equilibrium liq...

This work presents a cell to measure the dynamic viscosity of liquids using a wave mode conversion from longitudinal to shear waves and vice-versa. The method is based on the measurement of the complex reflection coefficient of shear waves at a solid-liquid interface. The reflected waves at the solid-liquid interface are measured in the longitudinal mode by a large aperture PVDF membrane to avo...

We examine the question of whether fluids and crystals are differentiated on the basis of their zero frequency shear moduli or their limiting zero frequency shear viscosity. We show that while fluids, in contrast with crystals, do have a zero value for their shear modulus, in contradiction to a widespread presumption, a crystal does not have an infinite or exceedingly large value for its limiti...

Four pigs fitted with a gastric cannula were fed on a wheat-flour-based diet (WF) and three oat-based diets, consisting mainly of oat flour (OF), rolled oats (RO) or oat bran (OB), for 1 week each. The stomach contents were collected quantitatively daily at 0.5, 1, 2, 3 or 5 h after feeding. The viscosity (mPa.s) of the liquid fraction of stomach contents 1 h after feeding was 1.7 with diet WF,...
