Scope and Goal Rheology is a science that concerns, in general, the mechanical stresses arising during processing of complex fluids and, in particular, the microstructures that underlie the macroscopic observations. This course focuses on the general concepts, analytical tools, and applications that are central to the interest of most researchers. Rheology will not necessarily be your expertise after this course; rather, you might start loving it and, in some respect, benefit from it. Course outline Non-Newtonian Flows: Phenomenology Mechanical Characterizations: Measurements and Material Functions Optical Characterizations: Flow Birefringence/Dichroism and Light Scattering General Analyses: Scaling Laws, Time-Temperature Superposition, Solvent Quality, and Fundamental Material Constants Constitutive Equations and Modeling of Complex Flow Processing Ongoing Researches and Future Perspectives Chapter 0 Introduction of Rheology Terminology What is Rheology? normally refers to the flow and deformation of “non-classical materials” (or called Non-Newtonian Fluids in this course) What is the “non-classical materials” ? such as rubber, molten plastics, polymer solutions, slurries pastes, electrorheological fluids, blood, muscle, composites, soils and paints.
