Atwo-dimensional Yukawa liquid is studied using two different nonequilibrium moleculardynamics simulation methods. Shear viscosity values in the limit ofsmall shear rates are reported for a wide range ofCoulomb coupling parameter and screening lengths. At high shear ratesit is demonstrated that this liquid exhibits shear thinning; i.e.,the viscosity eta diminishes with increasing shear rate. It isexpected that two-dimensional dusty plasmas will exhibit this effect.
