Wei Zhu Libri

The book explores the unique rheological properties and fluid dynamics of dense suspensions, which differ significantly from Newtonian fluids. It examines phenomena such as shear-thinning and shear-thickening effects, as well as particle migration under shear flow, with practical implications for systems like blood. Key factors influencing these behaviors include shear rate, particle concentration, and size. The author emphasizes the importance of controlled experimental platforms to study suspension flow behaviors, including velocity profiles and local particle concentrations at varying conditions.
