Rheology of Fluid, Semisolid, and Solid Foods: Principles and Applications (Food Engineering Series)

This revised third edition of Rheology of Fluid, Semisolid, and Solid Foods includes the following important additions:

·         A section on microstructure

·         Discussion of the quantitative characterization of nanometer-scale milk protein fibrils in terms of persistence and contour length.

·         A phase diagram of a colloidal glass of hard spheres and its relationship to milk protein dispersions

·         Microrheology, including detailed descriptions of single particle and multi-particle microrheological measurements

·         Diffusive Wave Spectroscopy

·         Correlation of Bostwick consistometer data with property-based dimensionless groups

·         A section on the effect of calcium on the morphology and functionality of whey protein nanometer-scale fibrils

·         Discussion of how tribology and rheology can be used for the sensory perception of foods
