RHEOLOGY
... Rheology is the study of flow of matter- in this case, rocks. Our aim is to describe the general behaviour of rheology by introducing strain rate and what the creep curve is. From this we introduce equations that represent the behaviour of different materials that we can calculate the motion and def ...
