Complex fluids exhibit a variety of exotic flow behaviours under high stresses, such as shear thickening and shear jamming. Rheology is a powerful tool to characterise these flow behaviours over the bulk of the fluid. However, this…
Two related approaches, one fairly recent [A. Trokhymchuk et al., J. Chem. Phys. 123, 024501 (2005)] and the other one introduced fifteen years ago [S. B. Yuste and A. Santos, Phys. Rev. A 43, 5418 (1991)], for the derivation of analytical…
