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; the simplest mathematical model of fluid that account for viscosity.
Bone tissue is treated in this model as a porous elastically deformed solid filled with a viscous newtonianfluid.

To really understand these materials, we need some knowledge of their opposite -that is, a Newtonianfluid.

CFD runs were processed using the finite volume (FV) method assuming blood as a homogeneous Newtonianfluid.

This method has been experimentally tested for Newtonianfluids for which the viscosity does not vary versus the gap dimensions.

Here we investigate this feat by studying the undulatory movements of C. elegans in Newtonianfluids spanning nearly five orders of magnitude in viscosity.
