Selected Topics in Food Rheology

VVZ CR n/a

Last Updated: 2026-06-03 00:14:17

Abstract

Food Rheology II addresses special topics in rheology such as suspension and emulsion rheology, extensional rheology, optical methods in rheology, and interfacial rheology.

Objective

The rheology of complex materials such as solutions, emulsions, and suspension will be discussed. In addition, several advanced rheological techniques (extension, rheo-optics, interfacial rheology) will be introduced and discussed in light of material characterization of complex fluids.

Content

Lectures will be given on structure and rheology of complex fluids (8h), optical methods in rheology (4h), extensional rheology (4h), and interfacial rheology (6h).

Resources

Lecture Notes

Notes will be handed out during the lectures.

Literature

Provided in the lecture notes.
