As I understand, viscosity characterizes the "resistance" of a material to "flow locally" as a function of the velocity of the material flow.
Now my question is following, what are the physical mechanisms involved which make this "resistance" dependent on velocity of the material movement/flow?
If the atomic interactions are a function of positions/displacement of atoms/material points... Where is this velocity dependence comming from??
