Microrheometer for Biofluidic Analysis: Electronic Detection of the Fluid-Front Advancement
The motivation for this study was to develop a microdevice for the precise rheological characterization of biofluids, especially blood. The method presented was based on the principles of rheometry and fluid mechanics at the microscale.

Natural convection of viscoplastic fluids in side-heated open cavities
This study considers the natural convection process of viscoplastic fluid in a side-open cavity filled with conductive solid blocks, which are uniformly distributed and form a square lattice.

The present paper summarizes various problems on non-Newtonian fluid mechanics. Due to complex rheological behaviors of non-Newtonian fluids, constitutive equations have highly nonlinear character. As two approaches to obtain constitutive equations, continuum mechanics and molecular theory are described, and then a number of models are presented ...

Lattice Boltzmann simulations of unsteady Bingham fluid flows
Transient flows of viscoplastic fluids have very peculiar characteristics. The startup and cessation flows of viscoplastic materials have been subject to many theoretical and numerical investigations. The most challenging aspect of numerical solutions of

Drilling fluids exhibit complex rheological behavior due to a non-linear response to shear rate variations and high sensitivity to changes in temperature, time, and pressure conditions. The prediction of drilling fluid rheological behavior is crucial for

A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,

Rheology of waxy oils: A critical review
Waxy oil is a rheologically complex material presenting shear-rate-dependent viscosity, static and dynamic yield stresses, gel elasto-viscoplasticity, time/deformation-dependent gel structure, and irreversibility.

Enhancing Bubble Removal in Geometry‐Optimized Electrodes
3D‐printed lattice electrodes outperform stochastic foams in alkaline water electrolysis despite 20%–25% lower surface area. Straight flow channels generate Venturi‐like bubble entrainment, suppressing gas accumulation that renders foam interiors electrochemically inactive.
