    About this ebook

    Rheology: Theory and Applications, Volume 1 is a compilation of papers contributed by experts in the field of rheology - the science of deformation and flow. The collection provides the general concepts and laws of rheology. This volume contains chapters that discuss the concepts of rheology from the standpoint of physics and engineering; phases of the deformation of solids; mechanism of liquid flow, large elastic deformations, viscoelasticity, and melt flow; the rheology of disperse systems; and acoustic responses of liquids. Materials scientists, geophysicists, physiologists, biologists, and pharmacists will find the book very informative.
