The reptating rope model: Viscometric functions for concentrated polymer solutions and melts in shear flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The viscometric functions for shear flow as predicted by the inextensible reptating rope model have been analysed numerically and analytically. The results obtained are compared with the predictions of the Curtiss—Bird theory.

Faxén's law for arbitrary oscillatory Stokes flow past a porous sphere

open access: yesArchives of Mechanics, 2012
The present article deals with the study of the hydrodynamics of a porous sphere in an oscillatory viscous flow of an incompressible Newtonian fluid. Unsteady Stokes equations are used for the flow outside the porous sphere and Darcy's equation is used ...

Numerical simulation of vortex-induced vibration of a 2D cylinder in oscillatory flow

open access: yesZhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu, 2019
[Objectives] In the actual oil and gas exploitation,the combined actions of wind, waves and currents may cause the offshore platform to oscillate periodically,and then the relative oscillatory flow is generated between risers connected to the platform ...

Exploiting timescale separation in micro and nano flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we describe how timescale separation in micro/nano flows can be exploited for computational acceleration. A modified version of the seamless heterogenous multiscale method (SHMM) is proposed: a multi-step SHMM.

Oscillatory rheotaxis of artificial swimmers in microchannels

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Biological and artificial microswimmers often navigate channels under external flow, where in many biomicroswimmers the active upstream motion is oscillatory. Here the authors demonstrate that regular, controllable, and reproducible oscillatory rheotaxis

On Phase Asymmetries in Oscillatory Pipe Flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present results from direct numerical simulations (DNS) of oscillatory pipe flow at several dimensionless frequencies Wo = {6.5, 13, 26} and one fixed shear Reynolds number Re_τ = 1440. Starting from a fully-developed turbulent velocity field at that Re_τ, the oscillatory flow either relaminarises or reaches a conditionally turbulent or strongly ...

Oscillatory Carreau flows in straight channels [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
The present paper studies the oscillatory flow of Carreau fluid in a channel at different Womersley and Carreau numbers. At high and low Womersley numbers, asymptotic expansions in small parameters, connected with the Womersley number, are developed. For the intermediate Womersley numbers, theoretical bounds for the velocity solution and its gradient ...

Pressure Change in Tee Branch Pipe in Oscillatory Flow

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of unsteady flow of branch pipes in pneumatic systems. Branch pipes are used in pneumatic pipe systems in various industrial fields. To predict the unsteady pressure changes in the pneumatic

A New Approach for Study the Electrohydrodynamic Oscillatory Flow Through a Porous Medium in a Heating Compliant Channel

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2020
The governing equations of an electrohydrodynamic oscillatory flow were simplified, using appropriate nondimensional quantities and the conversion relationships between fixed and moving frame coordinates.

Hydrodynamic Irreversibility in Particle Suspensions with Non-Uniform Strain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A dynamical phase transition from reversible to irreversible behavior occurs when particle suspensions are subjected to uniform oscillatory shear, even in the Stokes flow limit.
