Use of steady, transient and hysteresis tests in characterizing foodstuffs
The first order kinetic rheological model proposed previously by the authors is used here to describe the steady viscosity over a wide range of shear rates and the transient viscosity, as well as hysteresis loops for a product such as mayonnaise. The model is characterized by five parameters and adequately describes the data.
