A Parsimonious Model for Viscoelastic Liquids and Solids

  • Chapter

Abstract

The enormous progress in the capabilities of commercial rheometers allows measurements of rheological material functions with a high degree of reproducibility and over wide ranges of time and temperature. However, rheometry is still very tedious and its usefulness is often questioned. It seems that nearly all efforts had concentrated on the advancement of rheometers and too little thought had been given to questions like ‘how should we analyze the data?’, ‘how can we combine or compare rheometrical experiments?’ or ‘how can we make better use of the data?’. The problem is not that methods for the evaluation and application of the rheological data are insufficiently understood, at least in the linear viscoelastic range. The problem is that these methods still require too many repetitive and time-consuming steps to be performed on a routine basis. For example, the determination of relaxation and retardation time spectra was mostly seen in connection with major theses.
