Interfacial rheology is concerned with the deformation and flow of fluid–fluid interfaces laden with surface-active moieties such as polymers, proteins, particles and surfactants. Unlike bulk rheology ...

Water and oil, and some other simple fluids, respond in the same way to all levels of shear stress. These are termed Newtonian fluids, and their viscosity is constant for all stresses although it will ...

The flow behaviour of non-Newtonian fluids in complex geometries is fundamental to processes ranging from biomedical devices to energy production. Unlike Newtonian fluids, whose viscosity remains ...

The shearing of fluids—meaning the sliding of fluid layers over each other under shear forces—is an important concept in nature and in rheology, the science that studies the flow behavior of matter, ...

Graphene is a two-dimensional carbon sheet composed of sp2 hybridized carbon atoms arranged in a regular hexagonal structure on an atomic scale. The remarkable mechanical properties of this material ...

Rheology instruments and techniques are used extensively in the cosmetics industry, supporting research and development for new products as well as quality control and assurance. As well as quality ...

An international research team is attracting the attention of experts in the field with computational results on the behavior of ring polymers under shear forces: They showed that for the simplest ...
