Shear Thickening Fluids in Protective Applications

<div><p>This book is a complete reference to the use of shear thickening fluid (STF) in protective applications. It discusses the adaptive behavior of STF in various systems and how it is used effectively in a wide range of protective applications from low-velocity to high-velocity conditions. Covered applications include STF-based energy absorbing systems anti-impact structures deceleration devices shock attenuation composites and body armor applications. <i>Shear Thickening Fluid in Protective Applications</i> will be a valuable reference for practicing engineers researchers and scientists working in advanced materials protective applications and smart structures.</p></div>
