Tumor cells traverse many different types of fluids as they travel through the body. Christoph Burgstedt/Science Photo Library via Getty Images Cell migration, or how cells move in the body, is ...

New research findings show how higher viscosity, or resistance to flow, of the extracellular fluid that surrounds cells enables cancer cells to migrate more rapidly from a primary tumor to other sites ...

This article explores viscosity terms and definitions, unraveling the intricacies of fluid behavior. Absolute Viscosity - The force required for a liquid to overcome its internal friction and commence ...

Fundamental constants: a minimum value of viscosity has been calculated by Kostya Trachenko and Vadim Brazhkin (Courtesy: iStock/3quarks). Viscosity is an everyday phenomenon recognizable in the ...

To understand viscosity, laminar flow must be understood. This is when a gas or fluid flowing over a surface results in the molecules next to the surface having zero speed. As the distance from the ...

Fault zones play a key role in shaping the deformation of the Earth's crust. All of these zones contain fluids, which heavily influence how earthquakes propagate. In an article published today in ...

The trade-offs necessary to choose a fluid involve a consideration of application requirements such as health, safety, and environmental effects, and fluid properties such as viscosity, stability, ...
