So one important part of the flow curve is at very low shear. The yield value defines the shear stress, when the mass starts to move. Kakım a minimum shear rate is necessary for the measurement, usually the yield value başmaklık to be extrapolated from the flow curve according to benzer equations, like the ones developed by Casson and Windhab1. Yield values or measurements at low shear stress also have a great practical importance, as many industrial operations are carried out with masses flowing slowly, for example the equal distribution of still liquid mass in a mould.
