Chapter 7: Rheological Properties

Depending on the kinematics of the system you are modeling (steady shear flow, steady extensional flow, oscillatory shear flow, and so on), it is possible to compute and plot several viscometric properties in Ansys Polymat.

The following sections describe various kinematics properties, along with the name of each property as it appears in the Load Curves (Part I) and Load Curves (Part II) menus in Ansys Polymat.
