Local transient rheological behavior of concentrated suspensions [PDF]
This paper reports experiments on the shear transient response of concentrated non-Brownian suspensions. The shear viscosity of the suspensions is measured using a wide-gap Couette rheometer equipped with a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) device that ...

Simulation of relaxation time and storage modulus for carbon nanotubes-based nanocomposites
This paper develops two equations for relaxation time and storage modulus of biopolymer nanocomposites at unlike frequency ranges. The relaxation time is correlated to zero complex viscosity, yield stress, K constant and power-law index. In addition, the

Inflation in Terms of a Viscous van der Waals Coupled Fluid [PDF]
We propose to describe the acceleration of the universe by introducing a model of two coupled fluids. We focus on the accelerated expansion at the early stages. The inflationary expansion is described in terms of a van der Waals equation of state for the
