This chapter is an in-depth review on rheology of suspensions. The area covered includes steady shear viscosity, apparent yield stress, viscoelastic behavior, and compression yield stress. The suspensions have been classified by groups: hard sphere, soft sphere, monodisperse, polydisperse, flocculated, and stable systems. The particle shape effects are also discussed. The steady shear rheological behaviors discussed include low- and high-shear limit viscosity, shear thinning, shear thickening, and discontinuity. The steady shear rheology of ternary systems (i.e., oil-water-solid) is also discussed. 228 refs., 45 figs., 1 tab.
