A non-Newtonian fluid is one whose viscosity changes under an applied shear stress. Unlike a Newtonian fluid where viscosity is constant, its flow properties are not described by a linear relationship between shear stress ([latex]tau[/latex]) and shear rate ([latex]dot{gamma}[/latex]). This dependency can manifest as शिअर थिनिंग (viscosity decreases with stress) or कतरनी-मोटाई (viscosity increases with stress).
