Abstract:

To determine the elasticity and viscosity of dough using modern technology, several
methods can be used. One of the most common methods is to use a texture analyzer,
which measures the force required to compress a dough sample. This force can be used
to calculate dough elasticity and viscosity. Another method is to use a rheometer,
which measures the flow and deformation properties of the dough under stress,
technique can provide more detailed information about the rheological properties of the
dough, including its elasticity, viscosity, and viscoelastic behavior. In addition,
computer simulations and modeling can also be used to determine dough elasticity and
viscosity. These models can simulate dough behavior under various conditions, such as
changes in temperature, moisture content, and mixing time, to provide information
about dough properties and behavior. The use of modern technology has greatly
improved our ability to accurately determine the elasticity and viscosity of dough.
