Microstructural smoothed particle hydrodynamics model and simulations of discontinuous shear-thickening fluids [PDF]
Despite the recent interest in the discontinuous shear-thickening (DST) behavior, few computational works tackle the rich hydrodynamics of these fluids. In this work, we present the first implementation of a microstructural DST model in smoothed particle

Vortex-induced vibrations of a cylinder in inelastic shear-thinning and shear-thickening fluids
Vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) of a cylinder in a Newtonian fluid is a model problem in fluid–structure interactions and has been studied extensively. In this work, we study the influence of shear-thinning and shear-thickening fluids on the VIV response

An empirical equation for shear viscosity of shear thickening fluids
Quantitative modelling of the rheology of non-Newtonian fluids requires significant empirical input due to very complex behaviour of the bulk fluid as a result of particle-scale physics of fluids.

A phenomenological theory-based viscosity model for shear thickening fluids
A viscosity model for shear thickening fluids (STFs) based on phenomenological theory is proposed. The model considers three characteristic regions of the typical material properties of STFs: a shear thinning region at low shear rates, followed by a ...

Microstructure and thickening of dense suspensions under extensional and shear flows [PDF]
Dense suspensions are non-Newtonian fluids which exhibit strong shear thickening and normal stress differences. Using numerical simulation of extensional and shear flows, we investigate how rheological properties are determined by the microstructure ...

Generality of shear thickening in suspensions [PDF]
Suspensions are of wide interest and form the basis for many smart fluids. For most suspensions, the viscosity decreases with increasing shear rate, i.e. they shear thin. Few are reported to do the opposite, i.e.

Material removal characteristics of magnetic-field enhanced shear thickening polishing technology
To achieve the efficient and high-quality machining of hard and brittle ceramics used in various industries, in addition to other materials that are difficult to process, a magnetic-field enhanced shear thickening polishing technology was developed in ...

The shear-driven Rayleigh problem for generalised Newtonian fluids [PDF]
We consider a variant of the classical ‘Rayleigh problem’ (‘Stokes’s first problem’) in which a semi-infinite region of initially quiescent fluid is mobilised by a shear stress applied suddenly to its boundary. We show that self-similar solutions for the
