Surface Science, Glass Science & Rheology Quiz

The structures and interactions occurring at the interfaces of solids and gases, solids and liquids, and solids and solids.

Non-crystalline materials, including inorganic glasses, vitreous metals, and non-oxide glasses.

Any material that flows; modern rheology typically deals with non-Newtonian fluid dynamics and is considered a subset of continuum mechanics.
