Viscosity of Liquids and Colloidal Solutions

Abstract

IN 1940 there was held in Moscow, under the auspices of the Academy of Sciences, a conference on "Friction and Wear in Machinery". At this conference it was decided to hold a further conference, in the following year, on "Viscosity of Liquids and Colloidal Solutions". This took place just before the German invasion and only a part of the proceedings (one volume) was published before the serious events of the first months of war made further publication temporarily impossible. The second volume finally appeared in a war-time format, in 1944 (Moscow and Leningrad: Academy of Sciences, 1941 and 1944).
