The elongation viscosity of a high viscosity polymer fluid can be measured by equilibrium techniques. Low viscosity fluids require the use of non-equilibrium methods which produce an instantaneous value. Using two solutions of polyisobutylene in different solvents it can be shown that these instanta
Dynamic and steady-shear rheological measurements of the AOT/water lamellar liquid crystalline phase are reported as a function of surfactant concentration. Dynamical measurements indicate that the AOT/water lamellar phase behaves as a weak gel; i.e., both the elastic and the loss moduli, \(G^{\prim
