Cessation of flow in simple yield stress fluids results in a complex stress relaxation process that depends on the preceding flow conditions and leads to finite residual stresses. To assess the microscopic origin of this phenomenon, we…

Viscoelastic fluids are a class of fluids that exhibit both viscous and elastic nature. Modelling such fluids requires constitutive equations for the stress, and choosing the most appropriate constitutive relationship can be difficult. We…
In the classical theory of fluid mechanics a linear relationship between the shear stress and the symmetric velocity gradient tensor is often assumed. Even when a nonlinear relationship is assumed, it is typically formulated in terms of an…
