We report studies of the coagulation of samples of whole human blood by oscillatory shear techniques, including Fourier Transform Mechanical Spectroscopy (FTMS). These techniques are used herein to identify the Gel Point of coagulating blood in terms...

New techniques in sol–gel characterisation – mechanical measurements and fractal characteristics (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Williams, P., Williams, R. L., Jones, R., Al-Hussany, A., & Ravji, S. (2001). New techniques in sol–gel characterisation – mechanical measurements and fractal characteristics. Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 293-295, 731-745. https://doi.org/10.101

We report theoretical and experimental work which demonstrates how the viscoelastic dispersion of shear waves may be exploited in studies of the rheological properties of systems such as `critical-gels' – systems at the gel point. At the gel point a... Read More about New techniques in sol–gel characterisation – mechanical measurements and fractal characteristics.
