INTRODUCTORY POLYMER RHEOLOGY

EPD 640
课程描述

Introduction to polymer rheology. Concepts of continuum mechanics are introduced, specifically the fluid dynamics of non-Newtonian and linear viscoelastic fluids. Material functions, constitutive equations and rheometry and experimental methods for measuring material functions (rheometry) are discussed. Knowledge of linear differential equations [such asMATH 319or320] and fluid mechanics [such asM E 363] or momentum transfer [such asCBE 320] required.
