High-velocity impact of solid objects on Non-Newtonian Fluids

Abstract: We investigate which property of non-Newtonian fluids determines the deceleration of a high-speed impacting object. Using high-speed camera footage, we measure the velocity decrease of a high-speed spherical object impacting a typical Newtonian fluid (water) as a reference and compare it with a shear thickening fluid (cornstarch) and a shear thinning viscoelastic fluid (a weakly cross-linked polymer gel). Three models describing the kinetic energy loss of the object are considered: fluid inertia, shear thicken… Show more

“…At this point, the fluid changes to a solid-state [ 6 , 8 , 9 ]. Due to this ability, the non-Newtonian fluid can have an important role in impact dynamics [ 10 ], since it positively influences the mechanical properties and increases parameters performance such as energy absorption [ 9 ].…”

“…Many studies have been carried out for the preparation of STF by employing silica nanoparticles with polyethylene glycol (PEG). [13][14][15] The behavior of STF is influenced mainly by the molecular weight of PEG, size, and concentration of nano silica. The augmented thickening characteristic of STF is observed with increasing particle loading, whereas, thickening behavior decreases if the size of dispersed particles reduces.…”
