11、 increases with stress.If C is unity thematerial shows Newtonian flow.Most real materials show some non-Newtonian behavior and the apparent viscosity,computed as stressdivided by the shear rate,is reported.3.1.3 rheograma rheological diagram which shows howthe apparent viscosity of a material varies
