DESCRIPTION:
From Book News A practical account of the use of rheological measurements to characterize new materials, analyze non-Newtonian flow problems, and design plastic parts. . Includes worked examples and exercises with solutions. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or. It covers the essential criteria for selecting the best test types for various applications, accurately interpreting results, and determining other work areas where rheology and rheological phenomena might be useful
Y. Zhou said One Star. Very old content. Did not provide knowledge to understand current information provided by rheomer. "Excellent reference book" according to Brandon Barrett. MacOsko has written an excellent *reference* book; don't pick this up as your first foray into the field of rheology. (I recommend Stephen Rosen's text for that job.) MacOsko provides a relatively pain-free introduction to tensors and then proceeds to apply tensor analysis to a variety of rheological topics. If your work doesn't require rigorous tensor analysis, or if you're new to the field, avoid the book. Otherwise it's a very comprehensive and readable reference.. Best All Around Practical Rheology Reference Book G. G. Paroline Macosko has put together without a doubt the best practical rheology reference and the only one to include sufficient detail on rheometers. A bit heavy on the constitutive equations and tensors but you'll not be at a loss if you don't follow them. If you had the ability to purchase but one rheology reference, this should be it.
If you use rheological measurements to characterize new materials, analyze non-Newtonian flow problems, or design plastic parts, or if you would like to use rheology to overcome a particular problem, this pragmatic volume will prove invaluable to your research. It has been specifically designed to enable researchers to understand and apply information from the latest rheological literature to their own applications. Rheology: Principles, Measurements, and Applications presents an extremly practical, timely, and accessible three-dimensional account of this subject. Divided into three sections, the book covers the essential criteria for selecting the best test types for various applications, for accurately interpreting results, and for determining other areas where rheology and rheological phenomena may be useful in your work.This book will be of greatest interest to polymer scientists and mechanical engineers, as well as
