Okay, let's break down the connection between "铁掌水上漂" (tiě zhǎng shuǐ shàng piāo - literally "iron palm swims on water") and non-Newtonian fluids.
"1. What is "铁掌水上漂"?"
"Origin:" This is a term often associated with Chinese martial arts legends, most famously the character "Apo" (阿宝) from the novel Jin Yong's The Young Master (金庸的《鹿鼎记》).
"Description:" It describes a supposed martial arts skill where the practitioner can stand on the surface of water without sinking, seemingly defying gravity.
"Reality:" This is "not a real phenomenon" achievable by humans under normal circumstances. It relies heavily on:
"Illusion:" Camera tricks, editing, and careful positioning.
"Extreme Conditions:" Very shallow water, high water tension (perhaps due to evaporation), and maybe even a hidden layer of something solid.
"Myth/Fiction:" It serves as a metaphor for incredible skill or a seemingly impossible feat within the story.
"2. What are Non-Newtonian Fluids?"
"Definition:" These are fluids (liquids or gases) whose viscosity changes with the applied stress or strain rate. In simpler terms, their resistance to flow isn't constant.
"Contrast with Newtonian Fluids:"

现实生活中没人能够在牛顿流体-水上行走,但是在非牛顿流体上跳绳奔跑还是没问题的。

怎样制作这样的液体呢?
如果你往一盆水里加入大量淀粉,通过搅拌使之均匀混合,会得到一种非常浓稠的液体。接着,试着用力对液体打一拳,你会发现,拳头像打到固体一样被反弹回来,这种液体竟然打不穿!这是为什么呢?
沼泽为什么越陷越深
当一个人陷入沼泽时,他越挣扎会陷得越深。因为沼泽也属于非牛顿流体,但与淀粉溶液正好相反,给沼泽施加的作用力越大,沼泽的黏度反而越小,导致人更容易陷进去。
非牛顿流体的“黑科技”液体防弹衣
波兰一家公司利用非牛顿流体打造了一款液体防弹衣,这款防弹衣一旦被子弹射中,原本流动的液体会突然硬化、膨胀,对子弹冲击的抵抗力急剧增大,同时伴随着流体的体积膨胀,子弹的冲击力被均匀地分散开。
