By way of introduction, consider the dilational experiment of fig. 3.49. At t = t the monolayer is instantaneously subjected to a stress r° = r = r°, which is kept constant till t = t, after which it is suddenly removed. Panels (b) and (c) refer to the strain response AA/A for a purely elastic and a purely viscous monolayer, respectively, The elastic monolayer directly follows the applied stress after cessation it relaxes instantaneously. The viscous one starts to flow after cessation of the stress the flow stops. The height of the block in panel (b) is equal to r / K (compare [3.6,18]) whereas in panel (c) the interfacial (dilational) viscosity follows from the slope as... 

Transient shear flows involve examining the shear stress and viscosity response to a time-dependent shear. The stress build up at the start of steady flow (<7+) and at the cessation of steady flow (a ) and the stress decay (ff(0) after a dynamic instantaneous impulse of deformation strain (y) can be used to characterize transient rheological behaviour.

The nanocomposite PET-PEN/MMT clay was smd-ied under steady shear, instantaneous stress relaxation, and relaxation after cessation of steady flow [83]. Relaxation times of the slow mode in instantaneous stress relaxation were longer for the systems that have presumably permanent crosslinking networks (PET-PEN) or dynamic networks (PET-PEN-MMT). These results are consistent with those found in relaxation after cessation of flow (Fig. 31.4). Nanoclay addition somehow restricts the slow relaxation (due to polymer-particle interactions). The nanocomposite exhibits lower steady-state viscosity as compared to the polymer-matrix system. This is thought to be caused by polymer-polymer slipping, as revealed by the SEM observations (Fig. 31.5a and b). 

Under transient flow conditions, such as inception and cessation of steady shear, P becomes a function of time with parametric dependence on shear rate. It can be calculated by integrating Equation 3 for various transient conditions y(t). For start-up experiments which impose instantaneously a constant y upon a state of equilibrium. 

No excess pressure in the reactor tank this excludes an accident with an instantaneous rupture of the reactor tank and cessation of heat transfer from the core due to dryout. 

Reactor safety also involves events which arc not directly associated with reactivity additions e.g., if the circulating pump failed or if there were sudden cessation of heat removal in the heat exchanger, after-heat effects may raise the temperature (and pressure) of the system to undesirably high values. The possibility of an instantaneous rupture of a high pressure steam line, however, is remote, based on experience in conventional plants. ... 

Figure 6.70 Relaxation modulus after constant rate of deformation ( ) compared with that after instantaneous deformation (upper curve) and that after cessation of flow (lower curve) for BN-1 sample. Rate of deformation = 0.049-0.050 s and strain = 0.405 (O), 0.785 ( A ) and 1.205 ( ).

Besides describing the most important features of shear banding flow, our model can reproduce many of the details of the nonlinear rheological behavior of wormlike micelles such as inception of shear flow, instantaneous stress relaxation, and interrupted shear flow [14], Figure 7 depicts the experimental data (symbols) and model predictions (solid lines) for stress relaxation after cessation of flow for different shear strain levels. In this case.
