The viscoelastic properties of some dental soft lining materials. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
PhDThe viscoelastic properties of soft lining materials are of enormous interest and importance as they clearly govern the biomechanical function of these materials.

Effect of the contraction ratio upon viscoelastic fluid flow in three-dimensional square-square contractions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this work we investigate the laminar flow through square–square sudden contractions with various contraction ratios (CR¼2.4, 4,8and12), using a Newtonian fluid and a shear-thinning viscoelastic fluid.

Numerical solution of the eXtended Pom-Pom model for viscoelastic free surface flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we present a finite difference method for solving two-dimensional viscoelastic unsteady free surface flows governed by the single equation version of the eXtended Pom-Pom (XPP) model. The momentum equations are solved by a projection method

Exponential Energy Decay of Solutions for a Transmission Problem With Viscoelastic Term and Delay

open access: yesMathematics, 2016
In our previous work (Journal of Nonlinear Science and Applications 9: 1202–1215, 2016), we studied the well-posedness and general decay rate for a transmission problem in a bounded domain with a viscoelastic term and a delay term.

Soft, Dynamic Hydrogel Confinement Improves Kidney Organoid Lumen Morphology and Reduces Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Culture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
Pluripotent stem cell‐derived kidney organoids offer a promising solution to renal failure, yet current organoid protocols often lead to off‐target cells and phenotypic alterations, preventing maturity.

Mechanics of Viscoelastic Thin-Walled Structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Thin-walled structures made of polymers and reinforced polymer composites are prominent candidates for constructing large lightweight structures. A major challenge in designing polymer-based thin-walled structures is their time and temperature dependent ...

Blow-up of solutions to a viscoelastic parabolic equation with positive initial energy

open access: yesBoundary Value Problems, 2017
In this paper, a semilinear viscoelastic parabolic equation with nonlinear boundary flux is studied. Due to the comparison principle being invalid, potential well method and concavity argument are used to prove that the solutions blow up in finite time ...

Viscoelastic properties of crystals [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2009
We examine the question of whether fluids and crystals are differentiated on the basis of their zero frequency shear moduli or their limiting zero frequency shear viscosity. We show that while fluids, in contrast with crystals, do have a zero value for their shear modulus, in contradiction to a widespread presumption, a crystal does not have an ...

Nonlinearly Viscoelastic Response of Glassy Polymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This thesis consists of three chapters. After a brief introduction on the general aspects of polymer characterization and viscoelasticity in the first chapter, all major features of this research project are described in the following two chapters ...
