Non-Newtonian fluids are fluids whose viscosity changes with the applied shear stress or shear rate, in contrast to Newtonian fluids, which have a constant viscosity regardless of the applied stress. In simpler terms, the flow behavior of non-Newtonian fluids is dependent on the conditions under which they are subjected to force.
