Effects of Temperature on Rheology of Olive Oils
Appl. Rheol. 22:3 (2012) 34203 (7 pages)
►
In this study, the rheological properties of different samples of olive oils purchased from the same producer were investigated
in a wide range of temperature. In addition, at constant temperatures, the shear rate was varied to obtain heating effects.
It was found that all samples reach a minimum viscosity in the temperature range of 120 - 150°C before thickening to higher
viscosities. The viscosity remained almost unchanged in high shear rates regardless of temperature, indicating no shear thinning
effects. No thixotropic effects were observed for the olive oils. These findings can provide insight into the microstructural,
physiological and sensory changes at frying (high) temperatures.

Macroscopic modeling of a single entanglement at high deformation rates of polymer melts
Appl. Rheol. 22:3 (2012) 32575 (9 pages)
►
We constructed a macroscopic model illustrating behavior of a single entanglement knot of macromolecules in a melt and
examined its behavior at different deformation rates. A model consists of flexible elastic strips, which are tied in a granny
knot (modeling not a real geometrical form of entanglements but their behavior at relatively easy sliding). This scheme models
the situation when elastic energy exceeds the energy of the Brownian motion. The behavior of a knot chosen for modeling
is different at low and high deformation rates. In the previous case knots disentangle as predicted by the .tube. model,
elastic strips slip out a knot and this is an illustration of flow. In the latter case, knots tighten up, further extension of strips
leads to the increase in stresses up to breakup of a strip. This effect imitates the transition from the flow to the rubbery-like
behavior of polymer melts, when flow becomes impossible due to the formation of quasi-permanent entanglements. The
general dimensionless correlation for the process under discussion has been proposed.

The evaluation of rheological parameters of non-Newtonian fluids by rotational viscosimetry
Appl. Rheol. 22:3 (2012) 32381 (7 pages)
►
The methodology of evaluation of rheological parameters of non-Newtonian fluids on the basis of rotational viscosimetry
data has been described, which is based upon rigorous solution of Couette flow equation and considers informational content
of experiments. Class of models is formed for rheologically stationary systems, biviscosity ones included. Functional features
of methodology and its generalization for the interpretation of rheological properties measurements results according
to plans of experiments have been outlined.
