TL;DR: The linear time-dependent behavior of elasticoviscous liquids may be determined by conventional rheometers, or by any one of a number of new Rheometers which have recently appeared in which the test fluid is contained between two surfaces which rotate with the same angular velocity about axes which are not coincident.
Abstract: The linear time-dependent behaviour of elasticoviscous liquids may be determined by conventional rheometers, or by any one of a number of new rheometers which have recently appeared in which the test fluid is contained between two surfaces which rotate with the same angular velocity about axes which are not coincident. (The Orthogonal, Balance and Eccentric-Cylinder rheometers are perhaps the most well known examples of such instruments at the present time.) In this communication, we consider the more general situation in the new rheometers in which the angular velocities of the two surfaces are different.
