Rheological Word of the Moment
The winning word from this year's Scripps National Spelling Bee was stromuhr, which is "a rheometer designed to measure the amount and speed of blood flow through an atery." Stromuhr combines the German words for "stream" and "clock" and was invented by Carl Ludwig in 1867. Ludwig (1816-1895) was a German medical researcher who related chemical and physical laws to biological phenomena.
A picture of his stromuhr is shown to the left.
