Q-Sense Basic Training, April 4-5, 2006
Outline
• Different types of data evaluation
• Functions in QTools
Analysis Methods
1) Qualitative analysis (raw data plot, D-f plot)
2) Quantitative analysis (low D=Sauerbrey)
3) Quantitative analysis (high D=viscoelastic
modeling)
Qualitative Analysis
1) Raw data plot, relative comparison of responses

Viscosity
1. Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's
resistance to flow
Newton’s definition , coefficient of viscosity, viscosity
or dynamic viscosity
Unit

to 1 N·s/m2or 1 kg/m·s). y u ∂ ∂ = η τ Time D ef or m at io n Fo rc e
Shear modulus (Elasticity)
1.
Elasticity
2.
(Physics) The ratio of shearing stress to shearing strain within the
proportional limit of a material.
Unit (Pa, or N/m

• A viscoelastic material is, as the name
suggests, one which shows a
combination of viscous and elastic
effects.
