Abstract

Rheology, as indicated by its very name (rheos: to flow) is in its classical sense the science describing flow processes of matter, i.e., the displacement of the building units of a substance as a whole or parts of it under the influence of an applied force. The modern interpretation of rheology includes both the meaning as given above as well as the description of relaxation kinetics, i.e., the response of a system after an initially applied stress (or, more generally, after any applied external impact) has ceased to operate. Two approaches have been developed in the rheology of glass-forming melts: (i) A phenomenological approach, based on considerations following from a number of phenomenological models and their combinations; (ii) A microscopic approach involving more or less well-defined molecular model considerations concerning the mechanism of flow. Both approaches and their consequences are analyzed briefly in the present chapter.
