Submit to this Special Topic today |  | Call for PapersSpecial Topic: Non-Newtonian Fluids – From Rheology to Hydrodynamics to Modern Applications | Submission Deadline: December 31, 2025 | Non-Newtonian (or, complex) fluids, characterized by their complex and often counterintuitive flow behavior, open endless possibilities for exploring novel physics and developing new technologies, across disciplines. |

For example, non-Newtonian fluids may exhibit viscoelasticity (characterized by stress relaxation), shear thinning (characterized by a non-constant shear viscosity), extensional thickening (characterized by a non-constant extensional viscosity), normal stress differences (leading to, e.g., rod climbing), and thixotropy, to name a few. Adding further complexity, complex fluids flows may be active, multiphase, or present evolving interfaces. These effects must be characterized and understood to enable applications in industries ranging from biomedical engineering and food science to additive manufacturing and soft robotics. This Special Topic collection will bring together papers pushing the state of the art on non-Newtonian fluids, from their rheological characterization (both experimental and theoretical) and hydrodynamics (in confined or free-surface flows) to their modern applications in lab-on-chip technologies, additive manufacturing, fluidic actuation and control, to name a few. |
