GAMES Camp activity learning about shear thickening and viscoelasticity by making oobleck and slime.

Back in NZ attending the VPF 7 meeting. Many of the world’s best researchers in the field of yield stress fluids went to Rotorua. Good times all round.
The Girls’ Adventures in Mathematics, Engineering, and Science (GAMES) camp attendees learned about viscoelasticity timescales and formulations through making and playing with silly putty and oobleck. Is it a solid, or a liquid? As seen below, it was hard to tell who had more fun, the girls or us!
