An Introduction to Rheology

Using this introductory textbook, undergraduate and graduate students in mechanical, chemical or process engineering will acquire essential skills to grasp rheology’s importance in materials science and engineering. They then can apply that knowledge to real-world engineering problems, while their professors will find relevant information for other courses in advanced fluid mechanics. Each new approach in numerical or theoretical modeling is clarified with a minimum of mathematical computations but with many concrete examples and illustrations, including typical exercises and solutions.
