The After Life Of Technology

The After Life Of Technology 

Newtonian fluids are named after Isaac Newton, who first postulated the relation between the shear strain rate and shear stress for such fluids in differential form.

In continuum mechanics, a Newtonian fluid is a fluid in which the viscous stresses arising from its flow, at every point, are linearly proportional to the local strain rate—the rate of change of its deformation over time.
