The Weissenberg (rod-climbing) effect, i.e., the rise of a viscoelastic fluid along a thin rotating rod, has long served as a canonical demonstration of elasticity and normal-stress differences in complex fluids. The effect is most commonly…
The Weissenberg effect, or rod-climbing phenomenon, occurs in non-Newtonian fluids where the fluid interface ascends along a rotating rod. Despite its prominence, theoretical insights into this phenomenon remain limited. In earlier work,…
The climbing effect of a viscoelastic fluid when stirred by a spinning rod is well documented and known as Weissenberg effect(Wei et al, 2006). This phenomenon is related to the elasticity of the fluid. We have observed that this effect can…
Viscoelastic rate-type fluids represent a popular class of non-Newtonian fluid models due to their ability to describe phenomena such as stress relaxation, non-linear creep, and normal stress differences. The presence of normal stress…
We study the finite-shear-rate rheology of disordered solids by means of molecular dynamics simulations in two dimensions. By systematically varying the damping magnitude $\zeta$ in the low-temperature limit, we identify two well defined…
Our experiments on the rod-climbing effect with an oil-coated rod revealed two key differences in the rod-climbing phenomena compared to a bare rod. On one hand, an enhancement in magnitude of climbing height for any particular value of rod…
We present experimental evidence of global viscoelastic flow transitions in 2:1, 8:1 and 32:1 planar contractions under inertia-less conditions. Light sheet visualization and laser Doppler velocimetry techniques are used to probe spatial…
The present work investigates the role of contact angle hysteresis at the liquid-liquid-solid interface (LLS) on the rod climbing effect of two immiscible Newtonian liquids using experimental and numerical approaches. Experiments revealed…
We study the local dynamics of a thixotropic yield stress fluid that shows a pronounced non-monotonic flow curve. This mechanically unstable behavior is generally not observable from standard rheometry tests, resulting in a stress plateau…
Creeping flow of polymeric fluid without inertia exhibits elastic instabilities and elastic turbulence accompanied by drag enhancement due to elastic stress produced by flow-stretched polymers. However, in inertia-dominated flow at high…
The viscoelastic behavior of liquid polymers changes depending on the microstructure of the polymer chains. To investigate the unsteady structural changes induced by polymer chain morphology under stress, we develop a simple rheo-optical…
We investigated the effects of particle shape on shear thickening in densely packed suspensions. Rods of different aspect ratios and non-convex hooked rods were fabricated. Viscosity curves and normal stresses were measured using a…
Recent works reveal the importance of chaotic flow fluctuations as a mechanism for the enhanced resistance observed in viscoelastic porous media flows, and also show how chaotic fluctuations are affected by the structural disorder of porous…
Motivated by recent experimental studies of rheological hysteresis in soft glassy materials, we study numerically strain rate sweeps in simple yield stress fluids and viscosity bifurcating yield stress fluids. Our simulations of downward…
A planar two-dimensional computational analysis is presented to qualify traditional and fractal vane-in-cup geometries for accurate rheometry of simple viscoplastic fluids with and without slip. Numerical simulations based on an adaptive…
This study examines the flow of dense granular materials under external shear stress and pressure using discrete element method simulations. In this method, the material is allowed to strain along all periodic directions and adapt its solid…
An alternative step in understanding the flows of near wall drag-reducing turbulence can be examining the flow in a well-organized streamwise vortex with a laminar background. Herein, we studied the flow behaviors of the Giesekus…
We investigate previously unclarified effects of fluid elasticity on shear-thickening in dilute suspensions in an Oldroyd-B viscoelastic fluid using a novel direct numerical simulation based on the smoothed profile method. Fluid elasticity…
A numerical study of yield-stress fluids flowing in porous media is presented. The porous media is randomly constructed by non-overlapping mono-dispersed circular obstacles. Two class of rheological models are investigated:…
We make time resolved velocity measurements of steel spheres in free fall through liquid using a continuous ultrasound technique. We explore two different ways to induce large changes in drag on the spheres: 1) a small quantity of…
