Neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) are debilitating conditions ...

Materials scientists are measuring the rolling friction of tiny, micrometer-sized particles. These measurements permit them to better understand everyday products such as concrete.

Magnesia composed of felsic components is more viscous due to its higher silica and alumina content. magmas are characterized by a relatively low silica content and a higher iron and magnesium content ...

For example, these so-called non-Newtonian fluids suddenly become more viscous when a strong force acts upon them. For a brief moment, the liquid behaves like a solid. This sudden thickening is ...
