Polymeric materials near the liquid-solid transition (LST) exhibit a very distinct relaxation
pattern. The reference point for analyzing these patterns is the instant of LST at which …

Architectural coatings/paints play a very important role in our world, making our houses and
workplaces beautiful, comfortable, and energy-efficient. Polymeric components of coating …

Debonding at the core–skin interphase region is one of the primary failure modes in core
sandwich composites under shear loads. As a result, the ability to characterize the …

The constitutive behavior of polymeric materials is often modeled by finite linear viscoelastic
(FLV) or quasi-linear viscoelastic (QLV) models. These popular models are simplifications …

A book of 420 pages with the simple title Rheology, written in 2006, that's intriguing! After an
introduction and a literature survey (citing many of the classical works on fluid mechanics …

An efficient and accurate numerical method of interconversion between linear viscoelastic
material functions based on a Prony series representation is presented and tested using …

Cheese Rheology and Texture is the first reference to bring together the essential
information on the rheological and textural properties of cheese and state-of-the-art …

The effects of weight-average molecular weight (MW) and short and long chain branching
on the linear viscoelastic behavior of polyethylene (and ethylene− α-olefin copolymers) are …

Vitrimers are polymer networks that engage in dynamic associative exchange reactions.
Their covalent cross-links preserve network connectivity but permit topology fluctuations …
