Principles, Measurements, and Applications
This textbook by Christopher W. Macosko provides a clear and practical overview of rheology, aimed at researchers and engineers. It covers the use of rheological measurements for characterizing new materials and solving non-Newtonian flow problems.
Description
Rheology: Principles, Measurements, and Applications explains how you can apply rheological measurements to analyze material behavior and design plastic components. The book presents a clear methodology for interpreting results and choosing the right test methods for various applications. This helps you make full use of the potential of rheology in your research and development work.
The content is divided into three parts, which together provide thorough knowledge of theory, measurement techniques, and practical applications. This reference work is especially relevant for polymer scientists and mechanical engineers.
