Create a fascinating substance named after Dr. Seuss's story "Bartholomew and the Oobleck"! This strange material acts like a liquid when handled gently but becomes solid when force is applied. It's a ...

As a dense suspension of piezoelectric nanoparticles shear thickens due to a transition from frictionless (gray) to frictional (red) particle–particle interactions, friction-induced piezoelectricity ...

SECURITY NUMBER. YOU NEED TO REQUEST A VOTE BY MAIL BALLOT BY OCTOBER 24. JAZMIN: WE ARE BACK WITH OUR FRIENDS OF THE ORLANDO SCIENCE CENTER, MICHELLE IMPERATO SHOWS US SOME NEW WAYS TO LEARN.

This experiment drops a 660-pound steel “Hulk fist” from 150 feet into a pool of oobleck. Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid that behaves like a liquid or a solid depending on the force applied. The ...

This is a real classic at-home science experiment that we just had to give a go. This is perfect for little ones, at-home learning, or even just a fun stress reliever! Oobleck is what you would call a ...

Oobleck is a fun, classic science experiment that’s easy to do at home, especially on those rainy days when you can’t get outside! It shows off the properties of a non-Newtonian fluid, a substance ...

Mayonnaise’s texture is perfect for mimicking what a fuel capsule goes through when it’s blasted with lasers to ignite nuclear fusion, Emily Conover reported in “Mayonnaise may shed light on nuclear ...

Non-Newtonian fluid flows deviate from classical Newtonian behaviour by exhibiting viscosities that vary under different shear conditions. In these fluids the viscosity is not constant but responds ...

Scientists have come up with a way to stop damaged lithium-ion batteries catching fire. The batteries effectively harden on impact, preventing the electrodes making contact and starting a fire.
