Bingham flow - the flow characteristics exhibited by a Bingham plastic.Bingham model - a model representing the flow behavior of a Bingham plastic, in the idealized case.Bingham plastic - a material that, in the idealized case, does not flow until a critical stress (yield stress) is exceeded, and then flows at a rate proportional to the excess of stress over the yield stress.
