The article presents an experimental investigation of the rheological properties of carbomer microgels.All of the tested fluids were made up from commercial polyacrylic acid, Carbopol Ultrez 30. Intotal, eighteen microgels were prepared, differing in concentration; 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 wt%, with sixlevels of neutralisation for pH from 4.0 to 9.0. Based on the experimental flow curves it was foundthat all tested microgels are yield stress shear-thinning fluids. Therefore, the Herschel–Bulkley modelwas used and its rheological parameters were determined. It was found that both the concentrationand the pH value significantly affected the yield stress. As the Carbopol concentration increased,the yield point also increased. With the increasing value of pH, the yield stress first increased untila certain maximum level and then decreased. The maximum values of yield stress were obtained forpH=6to 7, depending on polymer concentration. It was also found that flow curves of the testedmicrogels could be described using one universal master curve, thus they have common rheologicalbehaviour.

We present a theoretical and experimental study of unloaded free surface mudflow in gradually varied conditions. First of all, a polymer gel following the same rheological law as the natural mud was identified, and its severe rheometric characterization was performed. Then the flow of this synthetic mud was generated in a 1-D open channel. The velocity and depth profiles were then systematically investigated. The theoretical study consisted in determining the velocity profiles in terms of the rheological parameters in uniform conditions as well as in determining the form parameter characterizing the gradually varied flow of yield stress fluids in open channels.
