Abstract
This proposal is novel in the foods domain, providing a unique blend of multidisciplinary science, combining computational rheology, material characterisation and experimentation at the University of Wales Institute of non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics with industrial technology. The aim is to develop appropriate rheological technology to aid optimisation and innovation in design of dough processing equipment. Mixer performance will be explored, re interaction with a range of characterised systems and a series of simplified kneading vessels. (Joint with grant D08174).
