An accurate experimental and theoretical study has been performed about a phenomenon, not previously reported in the literature, occurring in highly viscous liquids: the formation of a definite pipe structure induced by the passage of a…

Many manmade and naturally occurring materials form viscoelastic solids. The increasing use of biologically inspired elastomeric material and the extreme mechanical response these elastomers offer drive the need for a better, more intuitive…

Complex materials with internal microstructure such as suspensions and emulsions exhibit time-dependent rheology characterized by viscoelasticity and thixotropy. In many large-scale applications such as turbulent pipe flow, the elastic…

The non-homogeneous flow of a thixotropic fluid around a settling sphere is simulated. A four-parameter Moore model is used for a generic thixotropic fluid and discontinuous Galerkin method is employed to solve the structure-kinetics…

The present letter explains the synergetic effect of wall-slip, compressibility, and thixotropy in a pressurized flow startup operation of various structured fluids. Opposite to the intuition, experimental and numerical simulations suggest…

While determining the stability of an unconstrained elastic structure is a straightforward task, this is not the case for viscoelastic structures. Seemingly elastically stable conformations of viscoelastic structures may gradually creep…

Rock formations often exhibit transversely anisotropic elastic behavior due to their layered structure. Such materials are characterized by five independent elastic constants. In the context of petroleum applications, it is often…

The main goal of this work is to clarify and quantify, by means of mathematical analysis, the role of structural viscoelasticity in the biomechanical response of deformable porous media with incompressible constituents to sudden changes in…

We use a differential constitutive equation to model the flow of a viscoelastic flow in a cross-slot geometry, which is known to exhibit bistability above a critical flow rate. The novelty lies in two asymmetric modifications to the…

Formulating an appropriate elasto-viscoplastic constitutive equation is challenging, especially for a model describing pre-yielding solid and post-yielding liquid behaviours. Oldroyds 1946 formulation was one of the first models explaining…

One of the main theoretical issues in developing a theory of anisotropic viscoelastic media at finite strains lies in the proper definition of the material symmetry group and its evolution with time. In this paper the matter is discussed…

Viscoelastic rate-type fluid models constitute a fundamental framework for the mathematical description of complex materials exhibiting coupled elastic and viscous effects, with a wide range of applications in engineering, biomaterials, and…

Mechanical characteristics of single biological cells are used to identify and possibly leverage interesting differences among cells or cell populations. Fluidity---hysteresivity normalized to the extremes of an elastic solid or a viscous…

Heterogeneous materials exhibit anisotropy which is influenced by factors such as individual phase properties and microstructural configuration that form crucial descriptors of heterogeneity. A review of anisotropy indices proposed in the…

A nonlinear dynamical system model that approximates a microscopic Gibbs field model for the yielding of a viscoplastic material subjected to varying external stress recently reported in [1] is presented. The predictions of the model are in…

The aim of this paper is to calculate the time dependence of the mean position (and orientation) of a fluid particle when a fluid system at thermodynamic equilibrium is submitted to a mechanical action. The starting point of this novel…

We consider an anisotropic inhomogeneous model to simulate measured vertical-seismic-profile traveltimes. In this model, we assume that velocity increases linearly with depth and anisotropy is the result of elliptical velocity dependence.…

The ubiquitous wall slip behavior of viscoplastic fluids renders the analysis of their steady torsional flow data to determine their yield stress and other parameters of their shear viscosity material function challenging. Roughened…

We investigate the wrinkling dynamics of an elastic filament immersed in a viscous fluid submitted to compression at a finite rate with experiments and by combining geometric nonlinearities, elasticity, and slender body theory. The drag…

Viscoelastic rate-type fluid models are essential for describing the behavior of a wide range of complex materials, with applications in fields such as engineering, biomaterials, and medicine. These models are particularly useful for…
