Why monotonous and non-monotonous steady-flow curves can be obtained with the same non-Newtonian fluid? A single explanation
We show that a pronounced variation of the apparent viscosity with shear joined to the control shear mode of a rheometer can justify why monotonous and non-monotonous steady-flow curves can be obtained testing the same non-Newtonian fluid.
