Goal(s)
To introduce the basic knowledge of rheology ; classification of the different types of flows and behaviour under flows. The emphasis is put on rheometry ie the different ways of characterizing matter with controlled flows. The goal is : being able to chose pertinent rheometric tests needed to describe the behaviour under flow of material
