Engineering Rheology (Oxford Engineering Science Series, Band 14) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book is an ideal guide for those who need to make predictions about the behavior of non-Newtonian fluids in engineering. It stresses kinematics: the notion that there is a great interplay between the microscopic variables relevant to non-Newtonian fluids and the stresses developed in a given large-scale kinematic field. The volume surveys some typical non-Newtonian behavior, including information on classical continuum mechanics. It also provides a description of the two main kinematic fields--shearing and extensional flows. A survey of continuum and molecular-based relations is given to help readers through more complex flows needing and constitutive relation.
