Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Polymer
  • Viscosity

Morton M. Denn mainly focuses on Mechanics, Classical mechanics, Rheology, Flow and Viscosity. His study in Mechanics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Volume fraction, Stress, Sharkskin and Shear. His Classical mechanics study incorporates themes from Viscoelasticity and Rotational symmetry.

His Rheology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Shear flow, Extrusion and Constitutive equation. His work deals with themes such as Non-Newtonian fluid, Fluid mechanics and Bingham plastic, which intersect with Flow. His Viscosity study combines topics in areas such as Dilatant and Shear modulus.

His most cited work include:

  • Extrusion Instabilities and Wall Slip (436 citations)
  • Instabilities in polymer processing (358 citations)
  • Discontinuous Shear Thickening of Frictional Hard-Sphere Suspensions (351 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Morton M. Denn focuses on Mechanics, Rheology, Composite material, Polymer and Viscoelasticity. His work carried out in the field of Mechanics brings together such families of science as Shear, Classical mechanics and Constitutive equation. Morton M. Denn combines subjects such as Shear stress, Dilatant, Viscosity, Fluid mechanics and Contact force with his study of Rheology.

The concepts of his Polymer study are interwoven with issues in Shear flow, Thermodynamics, Phase and Liquid crystal. His Viscoelasticity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Shear modulus and Spinning. His Flow research includes themes of Stress and Deformation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (38.14%)
  • Rheology (21.40%)
  • Composite material (19.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Mechanics (38.14%)
  • Dilatant (8.37%)
  • Rheology (21.40%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mechanics, Dilatant, Rheology, Composite material and Shear. The study incorporates disciplines such as Thixotropy, Suspension, Stress, Rheometer and Statistical physics in addition to Mechanics. His Dilatant research incorporates elements of Flow, Viscosity, Shear rate, Shear flow and Suspension.

As a member of one scientific family, Morton M. Denn mostly works in the field of Shear rate, focusing on Newtonian fluid and, on occasion, Nonlinear flow. His Rheology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Shear stress, Classical mechanics, Contact force, Nonlinear system and Volume fraction. Morton M. Denn interconnects Jamming, Dispersity and Constitutive equation in the investigation of issues within Shear.

Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Yield Stress Materials in Soft Condensed Matter (293 citations)
  • Shear thickening, frictionless and frictional rheologies in non-Brownian suspensions (268 citations)
  • On different ways of measuring “the” yield stress (102 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Polymer
  • Viscosity

His primary scientific interests are in Mechanics, Rheology, Viscosity, Dilatant and Thixotropy. His work on Nonlinear flow as part of general Mechanics study is frequently connected to Solid material, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Rheology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Classical mechanics.

His studies in Viscosity integrate themes in fields like Conical surface, Breakup, Nozzle, Inertia and Surface tension. His Dilatant research focuses on subjects like Shear rate, which are linked to Shear flow. The various areas that Morton M. Denn examines in his Thixotropy study include Polymer, Flow curve, Viscoelasticity, Kelvin voigt and Flow visualization.
