Microfluidic systems for the analysis of the viscoelastic fluid flow phenomena in porous media [PDF]
In this study, two microfluidic devices are proposed as simplified 1-D microfluidic analogues of a porous medium. The objectives are twofold: firstly to assess the usefulness of the microchannels to mimic the porous medium in a controlled and simplified ...

Bubble growth in a two-dimensional viscoelastic foam [PDF]
The effects of viscoelasticity on the expansion of gas bubbles arranged in a hexagonal array in a polymeric fluid are investigated. The expansion is driven by the diffusion of a soluble gas from the liquid phase, and the rate of expansion is controlled ...

Brownian motion in a Maxwell fluid. [PDF]
The equilibrium dynamics of a spherical particle immersed in a complex Maxwell fluid is analyzed in terms of velocity autocorrelation function (VACF), mean-square displacement (MSD), and power spectral density (PSD). We elucidate the role of hydrodynamic

Shear thinning of a critical viscoelastic fluid [PDF]
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 $z_{2}=\frac{-iω}{2Γ_{0}κ_{c}^{3}}$.

Response of Viscoelastic Turbulent Pipeflow Past Square Bar Roughness: The Effect on Mean Flow
The influence of viscoelastic polymer additives on response and recovery of turbulent pipeflow over square bar roughness elements was examined using Direct Numerical Simulations at a Reynolds number of 5×103.

Slow motion of a sphere towards a plane through confined non-Newtonian fluid [PDF]
The time needed for the contact of two spheres or a sphere with a rigid plane is mainly controlled by the hydrodynamic drainage of the film located in the gap as long as its thickness is out of range of the Van der Waals interactions.

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
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
