Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

A frequency method of measuring the dynamic viscosity of rheological media is outlined for the example of a magnetorheological fluid. The method is based on the operational principle of a rotary viscosimeter, in which the torsion angle depends on the characteristics of the viscoelastic medium.
