The archetypal feature of a viscoplastic fluid is its yield stress: If the material is not sufficiently
stressed, it behaves like a solid, but once the yield stress is exceeded, the material flows like …

Viscoplasticity is characterized by a yield stress, below which the materials will not deform
and above which they will deform and flow according to different constitutive relations …

The third edition of Bubbles, Drops, and Particles in Non-Newtonian Fluids provides
comprehensive coverage of the scientific foundations and the latest advances in particle …

Numerical simulations of viscoplastic fluid flows have provided a better understanding of
fundamental properties of yield stress fluids in many applications relevant to natural and …

In this paper, we develop a resolved coupling model to simulate interaction between two-
phase fluids and irregularly shaped particles by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) …

The areas of suspension mechanics, stability and computational rheology have exploded in
scope and substance in the last decade. The present book is one of the first of a …

The behavior of suspensions of rigid particles in a non-Newtonian fluid is studied in the
framework of a nonlinear homogenization method. Estimates for the overall properties of the …

A direct-forcing fictitious domain (DF/FD) method for the simulation of particulate flows is
reported. The new method is a non-Lagrange-multiplier version of our previous DLM/FD …

Recent years have seen a flurry of research on yield stress fluids, approached from different
perspectives (physicochemical, rheological and fluid mechanical), considering different …

An efficient direct numerical simulation method to tackle the problem of particulate flows at
moderate to high concentration and finite Reynolds number is presented. Our method is built …
