The fluidity of liquid metals, like that of simple nonmetallic liquids, is a linear function of the ratio of unoccupied volume to intrinsic volume over long ranges as expressed by the equation varphi = B[(V/V(0)) - 1]. Values of V(0) obtained by extrapolating to varphi = 0 agree well with molal volumes of compact crystals at 20 degrees C calculated from densities.Values of the ratio varphi/[(V/...

Most fluids that appear in nature as well in numerous applications in industry are multiphase fluids such as liquid-particle suspensions...

The quality of veterinary vaccines is monitored by physicochemical, microbiological and biological tests. Two of the most important physicochemical parameters are viscosity and density, which are determined in the three different types of matrices: emulsions, suspensions and solvents. Viscosity, known as internal friction or viscose medium, is a feature of fluids and plastic solids characterize...
