The science of deformation and flow of matter. In practice, rheology is principally concerned with extending the "classical" disciplines of elasticity and Newtonian fluid mechanics to more complicated materials. Flows of elastic solutions and of those containing long-chain polymers, including coatings, as well as flows in extruders, molds, and other processing equipment, dominate rheology today.
The study of the deformation and flow of matter, usually liquids or fluids, and of the plastic flow of solids. The concept covers consistency, dilatancy, liquefaction, resistance to flow, shearing, thixotrophy, and VISCOSITY.
A term describing the viscosity and surface tension properties of solder pastes or adhesives.
Rheology is the study of the deformation and flow of materials. Has important bearing on the behavior of viscous liquids in plastic molding.
Measurement of the viscosity of a fluid under different conditions.
Flow characteristics of a solder cream, relating for example to behaviour when printing, dispensing or reflowing. Can be illustrated graphically by a rheological curve relating viscosity to shear rate at a particular temperature.
The science of deformation and flow of matter. Rheological descriptions usually refer to the property of viscosity and departures from Newton's law of viscosity.
A science dealing with the deformation and flow of matter.
both the ability of a material to flow or be deformed , and the scientific discipline studying that material property.
The term generally describing the flow behavior of liquid and semi-liquid materials when subjected to applied force. The reology of sealants is very important from an application standpoint since the ease of application of a sealant is often the determining factor in a product's acceptance in the market. (See " Thixotrophy")
the branch of physics that studies the deformation and flow of matter
The study of the flow characteristics of liquids.
The study of the flow properties of different materials especially of non-newtonian liquids and plastics; non-newtonian materials are substances where the flow is not proportional to the stress applied.
The science of rheology seeks to determine the basic rheological properties of substances and interpret changes in these under defined conditions of measurement. Basic rheological properties are strength, viscosity, elasticity and plasticity. In order to determine these properties, rheometry, a sub-discipline of rheology, uses a deforming force and measures the effects of this force on the material – in this case the dough – as its deformation. The deforming force may be of any magnitude, large or small: the measurements differ accordingly.
the study of the flow and change of shape of matter (flow properties), especially the viscosity of liquids. An understanding of the rheology of mineral suspensions is important in many hydrometallurgical operations, such as pumping, pipeline transport, thickening, milling and grinding.
Relates closely to viscosity. Embraces the science of how liquids, eg inks, flow.
The study of the deformation and flow of materials, in terms of stress, strain and time.
Science of deformation and flow of fire retardants and other liquids, especially of the cohesiveness bodies and stress-strain relationship of their particles.
Pertaining to viscosity behavior; the viscosity of an adhesive material under conditions of shear; the plastic flow properties of an adhesive interface.
the science which studies the deformation and flow of materials.
The science of the deformation and flow of matter. Paints contain additives known as rheology modifiers which enhance such desired paint characteristics as coating flow and leveling and spatter resistance.
The science characterizing fluid deformation or flow.
The study of the flow of matter, especially the non-Newtonian flow of liquids and plastic solids.
The study or phenomena of the deformation and flow of matter in response to a force or pressure.
Rheology is defined as a science concerned with the laws of deformation of various materials.
The science of the deformation and flow of matter, usually pertaining to the flow of blood through the cardiovascular system
The study of elastic, plastic, and viscous flow of polymers and feedstocks used in PIM.
The study of the flow of materials and the response of flow phenomena such as apparent viscosity under different conditions of applied shear.
The study of fluid-flow properties.
science of deformation and flow. (Rheos, in Greek means stream or anything that flows).
Special consideration of viscosity. Considers the effect of such things as stickiness and sensitivity to shear on viscosity.
Technical term for the flow characteristics of paint.
The study of flow of polymeric materials on a macroscopic and microscopic level.
The science dealing with flow and the deformation of matter.
Rheology is the study of the deformation and flow of matter under the influence of an applied stress. The term was coined by Eugene Bingham, a professor at Lehigh University, in 1920, from a suggestion by a colleague, Markus Reiner. The term was inspired by Heraclitus's famous expression panta rei, "everything flows".
