Interfacial Dynamics of Miscible Displacement of Shear-Thinning Fluid in a Vertical Channel
Fluids, 2023 The displacement of a shear-thinning fluid by a denser and less viscous Newtonian fluid in a vertical duct is investigated using experiments and numerical simulations. We study how shear-thinning and increased viscosity contrast between the fluids affect

Shear thinning of a critical viscoelastic fluid [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2005 The frequency and shear dependent critical viscosity at a correlation length $ξ=κ^{-1}$, has the form $η=η_{0}κ^{-x_η}G(z_{1},z_{2})$, where $z_{1}$ and $z_{2}$ are the independent dimensionless numbers in the problem defined as $z_{1}=\frac{-iω}{2Γ_{0}κ^{3}}$ and $z_{2}=\frac{-iω}{2Γ_{0}κ_{c}^{3}}$.

Pulsatile flow of shear-dependent fluid in a stenosed artery [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2012 This paper aims to investigate the blood flow in a bell-shaped constricted rigid tube, modeled as stenosed artery. The flow is assumed to be axi-symmetric, laminar and of oscillatory type.

Swimming efficiency in a shear-thinning fluid [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2017 Micro-organisms expend energy moving through complex media. While propulsion speed is an important property of locomotion, efficiency is another factor that may determine the swimming gait adopted by a micro-organism in order to locomote in an energetically favorable manner.

Critical Shear Rate of Polymer-Enhanced Hydraulic Fluids
Lubricants, 2020 Many application-relevant fluids exhibit shear thinning, where viscosity decreases with shear rate above some critical shear rate. For hydraulic fluids formulated with polymeric additives, the critical shear rate is a function of the molecular weight and
