COVID-19 lockdown induces disease-mitigating structural changes in mobility networks.

abstract：:Complex liquids flow through channels faster than expected, an effect attributed to the formation of low-viscosity depletion layers at the boundaries. Characterization of depletion layer length scale, concentration, and dynamics has remained elusive due in large part to the lack of suitable real-space experimental tec...
