We review thixotropy, its attributes, and accompanying rheological phenomena, such as
yielding, hysteresis in shear-rate ramps, the influence of rest time and viscosity bifurcation …

The review presents current research results for Carbopol-based microgels as yield-stress
materials, covering three aspects: chemical, physical and rheological. Such a joint three …

The understanding of hydrodynamic forces around particles, drops, or bubbles moving in
Newtonian liquids is modestly mature. It is possible to obtain predictions of the attractive …

Viscoplasticity is characterized by a yield stress, below which the materials will not deform
and above which they will deform and flow according to different constitutive relations …

The review is devoted to the analysis of the current state of understanding relationships
among the deformation-induced structure transformations, observed rheological properties …

Recent years have seen a flurry of research on yield stress fluids, approached from different
perspectives (physicochemical, rheological and fluid mechanical), considering different …

To describe the macroscopic rheological behavior of thixotropic elasto-visco-plastic (TEVP)
materials, phenomena that take place in their microstructure must be accounted for. To this …

Elastoviscoplastic materials present a transition from a gel-like to a liquidlike state induced
by shearing: While the first is primarily elastic, the second is predominantly viscous. The …

A century ago, and more than a decade before the term rheology was formally coined,
Bingham introduced the concept of plastic flow above a critical stress to describe steady flow …

Based on the original ideas by Oldroyd in 1947, Saramito in 2007 introduced a generally
acceptable model for yield stress fluids that also accounts for their elasticity. We use this …
