- The
viscosity of a
fluid is a
measure of its
resistance to
deformation at a
given rate. For liquids, it
corresponds to the
informal concept of "thickness":...
- the
apparent viscosity is constant, and
equal to the
Newtonian viscosity of the fluid, but for non-Newtonian fluids, the
apparent viscosity depends on the...
-
antiwear additives, detergents, dispersants, and, for multi-grade oils,
viscosity index improvers.[citation needed]. The main
function of
motor oil is to...
- The
viscosity index (VI) is an arbitrary, unit-less
measure of a fluid's
change in
viscosity relative to
temperature change. It is
mostly used to characterize...
-
Volume viscosity (also
called bulk
viscosity, or
dilatational viscosity) is a
material property relevant for
characterizing fluid flow.

-
Viscosity depends strongly on temperature. In
liquids it
usually decreases with
increasing temperature, whereas, in most gases,
viscosity increases with...
-
Viscosity is a
material property which describes the
resistance of a
fluid to
shearing flows. It
corresponds roughly to the
intuitive notion of a fluid's...
- In
object oriented programming,
viscosity refers to the ease at
which a
developer can add design-preserving code to a system. If it is
easier to add a...
- In
fluid dynamics, the
reduced viscosity of a
polymer is the
ratio of the
relative viscosity increment ( η i {\displaystyle \eta _{i}} ) to the m**** concentration...
-
inherent viscosity is the
ratio of the
natural logarithm of the
relative viscosity of a
polymer to its m**** concentration.
Inherent viscosity is defined...
