- Salvia not only restores normal microcirculation, but normalizes blood viscosity from other factors, as well.
- He and Gross also want to find other genes involved in fruit softening in hopes of further improving firmness or viscosity.
- If viscosity is artificially added in an inviscid model, it has only a small effect on performance.
- Even when, by the elasticity of the flesh, that cavity closed up some, it closed up on organs that had been gelatinized, literally turned to viscosity. A Bob Lee Swagger eBook Boxed Set
- Solids, liquids and gases are ideal behaviours characterised by properties such as compressibility, viscosity, elasticity, strength and hardness. Archive 2005-09-01
- Since the bearings and piston rings are lubricated predominantly in the hydrodynamic regime, a lubricant with a lower viscosity should lead to a thinner oil film and thus lower friction.
