Substances with a yield stress only start to flow once the outside forces acting on them are larger than their internal structural forces. Below the yield point the substance shows elastic behavior ...
Many complex fluids, such as surfactant mesophases, network forming polymers, emulsions etc. do not flow until the applied stress crosses a certain critical value, called the yield stress. Materials ...
Researchers have investigated the fluid dynamics of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) moving through gastric mucus using a 3D model and a magnetic field. H. pylori uses its corkscrew-like tail to move ...
