Determining true material constants of semisolid slurries from rotational rheometer data
(2016)In this work we revisit the issue of obtaining true material constants for semisolid slurries. Therefore, we consider the circular Couette flow of Herschel-Bulkley fluids. We first show how true constants can be obtained ...
