A comprehensive review is presented of the physical behavior of yield stress materials in
soft condensed matter, which encompasses a broad range of materials from colloidal …

Yield stress fluids are encountered in a wide range of applications: toothpastes, cements,
mortars, foams, muds, mayonnaise, etc. The fundamental character of these fluids is that …

Texture and mouthfeel arising from the consumption of food and beverages are critical to
consumer choice and acceptability. While the food structure design rules for many existing …

In this paper, we probe the influence of confinement on the flows of a polymer microgel,
namely Carbopol. We compare its bulk rheological behavior, measured with a rheometer …

Abstract Knowledge of the evolution in the mechanical properties of a curing polymer matrix
is of great importance in composite parts or structure fabrication. Conventional rheometry …

Although droplet microfluidics have attracted increasing research interest, the regulation of
complex polymeric droplets remains incomplete in chemical industry. In this study, we …

Squeeze flow is used for rheological evaluation of many classes of materials. It can be
performed in different configurations and is particularly interesting for heterogeneous …

The squeeze flow test provides relevant information about the macroscopic rheological
behavior of mortars. Nevertheless, the identification and characterization of micro and meso …

Twenty-three commercial samples of facial moisturizers were tested using rheological and
tribological measurements and further compared to sensorial attributes as rated by …

An enhanced version of the flexure-based microgap rheometer (FMR) is described which
enables rheological measurements in steady state shearing flows of bulk fluid samples of …
