What is rheology in geology?
Rheology in a geological context deals with the flow / deformation of the extremely viscous fluids that compose the asthenosphere and mantle (fluid in this context means that it flows but only on a geological time scale where strain rates are measured in metres / million years). In fact a better way may be to think of them as soft solids but that only act like they are soft way because of the very high temperatures and pressures they are under inside the earth. For more information on Rheology and rheology in a geological / geophysical context, please see the related link.
What is rheology most useful for?
Rheology, as you know, is the study of matter's flow, especially in liquid states. It is very useful in scientific fields, specifically geophysics and physiology.
How are the lithosphere and the asthenosphere similarand how are they different?
The difference is in the rheology of the rocks, or, how they react under pressure. The lithosphere exhibits brittle rheology which means it will break or crack while the asthenosphere exhibits ductile rheology meaning it will deform or "flow in the solid state" not unlike silly putty. The lithosphere includes the crust and the upper part of the mantle and is approximately the upper 100km of the Earth.
What are the two types of fermentation and why each is necessary?
Aerobic fermentation and anaerobic fermentation.
What are the two types of anaerobic fermentation's?
Lactic Acid Fermentation and Alcoholic Fermentation.
What is Study of non newtonian fluids?
rheology
Do fluids exert friction?
Certain fluids, especially liquids, do exert internal friction. This property of the fluid is called viscosity. Rheology is known as the study of viscosity.
Are there jobs where you can practice rheology?
Yes, rheology is a real study. Rheology does have jobs available where people who are interested in rheology can practice rheology. The society of rheology has a website where all of the information is available.
When was Journal of Rheology created?
Journal of Rheology was created in 1929.
