Viscoelastic polymer dynamics and kinetic models represent a vibrant interdisciplinary field that bridges molecular theory with macroscopic flow behaviour in complex fluids. At its core, the subject ...

Liquid droplets of protein and RNA have traits reminiscent of a childhood joy: Silly Putty. That’s according to a study by scientists at UB and Iowa State University, who have created such droplets in ...

We precisely measure the force-free swimming speed of a rotating helix in viscous and viscoelastic fluids. The fluids are highly viscous to replicate the low Reynolds number environment of ...

A method tracks the motion of nucleolar layers to determine the viscoelastic properties of a membraneless organelle.

Researchers developed a nonlinear viscoelastic-plastic model to accurately forecast mining-induced subsidence, ensuring safer infrastructure construction.
