The progress made during the past decade in the application of mixed finite element
methods to solve viscoelastic flow problems using differential constitutive equations is …

The K‐BKZ constitutive model is now 50 years old. The paper reviews the connections of the
model and its variants with continuum mechanics and experiment, presenting an up‐to‐date …

Personalizing the nutrition and sensorial attributes of 3D printed foods primarily requires
various multiscale properties to be individually tailored. Herein, multiscale inks are produced …

We examine and compare five constitutive models, which have been recently proposed to
describe the behavior of elasto-visco-plastic fluids. The comparison is performed in simple …

The excess pressure losses due to end effects (mainly entrance) in the capillary flow of a
branched polypropylene melt were studied both experimentally and theoretically. These …

The numerical computation of viscoelastic fluid flows with differential constitutive equations
presents various difficulties. The first one lies in the numerical convergence of the complex …

The extrudate swell phenomenon of a high-molecular-weight HDPE is modeled using the
following viscoelastic constitutive equations: the multi-mode Kaye-Bernstein–Kearsley …

Extensional rheology of a variety of linear and branched polymer melts is investigated using
entry flow measurements and 15: 1 axisymmetric contraction flow simulations. Using a …

Die swell is a common phenomenon in polymer extrusion. When a viscoelastic fluid flows
out of a die, the extrudate diameter is usually greater than the channel size. This is called die …

The excess pressure losses due to end effects (mainly entrance) in the capillary flow of
several types of polyethylenes were studied both experimentally and numerically under slip …
