Liquid deformation types

Where adequate strength is given by the mechanical fastenings being closely spaced or the thickness of the material providing sufficient stiffness to avoid deformation, it is possible to use the liquid gasket types of seal.

This chapter comprises two sections. The first describes the most usual techniques to directly measure force versus distance profiles between solid or liquid surfaces. We then describe different long-range forces (range >5 nm) accessible to evaluation via these techniques for different types of surface active species. The second section is devoted to attractive interactions whose strong amplitude and short range are difficult to determine. In the presence of such interactions, emulsion droplets exhibit flat facets at each contact. The free energy of interaction can be evaluated from droplet deformation and reveals interesting issues. 

A liquid is a material that continues to deform as long as it is subjected to a tensile and/or shear stress. The latter is a force applied tangentially to the material. In a liquid, shear stress produces a sliding of one infinitesimal layer over another, resulting in a stack-of-cards type of flow (Fig. 1).

By necessity, the treatment of solid state kinetics has to be selective in view of the myriad processes which can occur in the solid state. This multitude is mainly due to three facts 1) correlation lengths in crystals are often much larger than in fluids and may comprise the whole crystal, 2) a structure element is characterized by three parameters instead of only by two in a liquid (chemical species, electrical charge, type of crystallographic site), and 3) a crystal can be elastically stressed. The stress state is normally inhomogeneous. If the yield strength is exceeded, then plastic deformation and the formation of dislocations will change the structural state of a crystal. What we aim at in this book is a strict treatment of concepts and basic situations in a quantitative way, so far as it is possible. In contrast, the often extremely complex kinetic situations in solid state chemistry and materials science will be analyzed in a rather qualitative manner, but with clearcut thermodynamic and kinetic concepts. 

SOLID. Matter in its most highly concentrated form, i.e., the atoms or molecules are much more closely packed than in gases or liquids and thus more resistant to deformation. The normal condition of the solid state is crystalline structure—the orderly arrangement of the constituent atoms of a substance in a frame work called a lattice, See also Crystal. Crystals are of many types and normally have defects and impurities that profoundly affect their applications, as in semiconductors, The geometric structure of... 

The possibility for the existence of mesophase in a rubbery state 36,46), typical only for macromolecular compounds with their natural ability to display big reversible deformations, reveals interesting prospects from the viewpoint of creation of new types of liquid-crystalline materials in the form of elastic films, as well as for development of the theory of viscoelastic behaviour of such unusual elastomers. 

The theory of nematic liquid crystal deformation, forced by an electric field is well developed and permits to establish the relationship between the threshold voltage U, causing sample orientation, with Ae and elasticity constants of a liquid crystal (Kn). For the main S and B types of deformation the equation is the following27 ... 

Deformation of a Sphere in Various Types of Flows A spherical liquid particle of radius 0.5 in is placed in a liquid medium of identical physical properties. Plot the shape of the particle (a) after 1 s and 2 s in simple shear flow with y 2s1 (b) after 1 s and 2 s in steady elongational flow with e = 1 s 1. (c) In each case, the ratio of the surface area of the deformed particle to the initial one can be calculated. What does this ratio represent ...
