Introduction to the Rheology of Complex
Fluids
Rheology
all normal or Newtonian fluids (air, water, oil, honey) follow the
same scientific laws. On the other hand, there are also fluids that do
not follow the Newtonian flow laws. These non-Newtonian fluids, for
example mayo, paint, molten plastics, foams, clays, and many other
fluids, behave in a wide variety of ways. The science of studying
these types of unusual materials is called rheology

Rheologys Goals
Establishing the relationship between applied
forces and geometrical effects induced by
these forces at a point (in a fluid).
