Rheologica Acta advances the science of rheology, publishing high quality peer-reviewed papers on the rheology of both complex fluids and solids. Welcomes experimental, theoretical, and computational approaches. Explores a wide range of areas in rheology, ranging from basic science to technologically-relevant applications Offers in-depth discussions on complex rheological phenomena (instabilities, secondary flows, …) and advanced techniques (time-resolved rheometry, microfluidics, …). Is the official journal of The European Society of Rheology.
