Shear thickening fluids (STFs) are a new type of nanosuspension, which are formed by
dispersing micro and nanoparticles in a dispersant. STFs are easily deformed under the …

A thorough and critical review on Shear Thickening Fluids (STFs) is presented based on a
literature survey. The rheological properties of STFs are discussed considering many factors …

Biological systems must have the capability to withstand impacts generated during collisions
due to combat and defense. Thus, evolution has created complex materials' architectures at …

Shear thickening fluids (STFs) exhibit a unique potential for use in widespread range of
applications from mechanical platforms and smart structures to effective protective fabrics …

In this work, shear-stiffening gel (STG) was introduced into shear thickening fluid (STF)-
impregnated-Kevlar® woven fabric (Kevlar/STF) to improve the impact resistance. The STF …

This study presents some soft armour panel design strategies using shear thickening fluid
(STF) reinforced Kevlar® fabric. The effect of size of silica nano and sub-micron particles on …

The non-Newtonian fluid polishing is an advanced method that is applied to machining the
complex surfaces. This method significantly improves the surface quality and mechanical …

A critical review on the factors affecting the impact resistance behaviour of soft body armour
is presented here. The effect of several material and structural parameters of fibrous …

In this paper, shear thickening fluids (STFs) and three different types of additive particles
such as silicon carbide, aluminum oxide and boron carbide are presented. STFs were …

The main focus of this review is on soft composites, relatively new to the literature. The
ballistic fabrics, mechanism of ballistic energy absorption and parameters affect the ballistic …
