For over 30 years, mode-coupling theory (MCT) has been the de facto theoretic description of dense fluids and the liquid-glass transition. MCT, however, is limited by its ad hoc construction and lacks a mechanism to institute corrections.…
A low-order finite element method is constructed and analysed for an incompressible non-Newtonian flow problem with power-law rheology. The method is based on a continuous piecewise linear approximation of the velocity field and piecewise…
The main theme of the article is the study of discrete systems of material points subjected to constraints not only of a geometric type (holonomic constraints) but also of a kinematic type (nonholonomic constraints). The setting up of the…
