Summary

Engineering Rheology: Predicting Material Behavior in Processing Technology

This book serves as a practical guide, complete with illustrative examples, for those seeking to predict the mechanical and thermal behavior of non-Newtonian materials within engineering and processing technology contexts.

Following an introductory overview of the field and a review of fundamental continuum mechanics, the significant distinctions between elongational and shear behavior are highlighte…

Critics Review

“After an introductory survey of the field and a review of basic continuum mechanics, the difference between elongational and shear behavior are discussed. Two chapters, one based on a continuum approach and the other using microstructural approaches, lead to mathematical descriptions of materials for engineering applications. Lubrication and related shearing flows are discussed, as are fiber-spinning and film-blowing, as examples of nearly viscometric and nearly elongational flows. Other chapters deal with computational rheology, stability and turbulence, and temperature effects in flow. The second editions contains new material on wall slip, suspension rheology, and computational rheology, and new results in stability theory.” – Mechanical Engineering, Oct 2000
