Abstract:Shear thickening fluid (STF) is a nano-smart material that exhibits an instantaneous increase in viscosity when subjected to specific external loads. Notably, its viscosity response does not necessitate external energy input, making it widely applicable in vibration control, energy absorption, and vibration reduction. This paper first presents an introduction and analogy to the evolution of the thickening mechanism of STF. It then discusses factors that influence the rheological properties of STF, including th… Show more
