Rheologica Acta exists to advance rheology in the broadest sense, presenting papers in all core areas of fluid or solid rheology. The journal accepts papers in all core areas of fluid or solid rheology. Coverage includes studies which integrate rheology with other physical or chemical phenomena, which explore novel experimental or computational methods, and which apply rheology. Materials of interest include polymer melts and solutions, liquid crystals, emulsions, dispersions, suspensions, ionomers, gels, biomaterials, food materials, rubber, glass ceramics and cement. The journal explores such topics as theory of rheology; non-Newtonian materials; computational methods in rheology; correlation of rheology with molecular and supramolecular structure; flow-induced phase transitions or ordering transitions; chemorheology and electrorheology; elastic instabilities and secondary flows; time-resolved rheometry, and more. Rheologica Acta is the official journal of The European Society of Rheology.
