Traction tests on soft tissues show that the shape of the stress strain curves depends on the strain rate at which the tests are performed. Many of the constitutive models that have been proposed fail to properly consider the effect of the strain rate when ...
This thesis is divided into two parts. In the first one the creation of a complete numerical tool, from the mesh generation to the data treatment, is presented. However time consuming this part has been, this is not the most important one. The second and m ...
Experimental squeeze flow results show that the behaviour of concentrated short fibre suspensions and concentrated long fibre suspensions impregnated with polymer melts are qualitatively different. Short fibre suspensions have a low yield stress, have an o ...
In the devolatilization step of polymn. processes, extruders are widely used for surface renewal. The LIST co-rotating processor (CRP) studied in the present paper, shows high performance for devolatilization processes. A sepn. model is correlated with exp ...
Wall shear stress has been implicated in the genesis of atherosclerosis because a strong correlation exists between the location of developing arterial lesions and regions where particular gradients in stress occur. Studying the behavior of endothelial cel ...
The particle entrainment ability of coherent flow structures is investigated by comparing statistical properties of momentum flux u'w' and of turbulent mass fluxes c'u' and c'w' in suspension, open-channel flow under capacity charge conditions. The quadran ...
In this paper we use the theory of geometric curve and surface evolution to diffuse an object preserving their important features. We do that using a curvature flow method with a novel influence function. The proposed influence function takes profit from t ...
When the effects of physical aging below Tg are erased, the rheological response of a series of aliphatic hyperbranched polyesters is Newtonian and the melt viscosity scales roughly linearly with Mw at high Mw, indicating entanglement to be absent. The rhe ...
The use of a tetrafunctional epoxy-based additive to modify the molecular structure of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was investigated with the aim of producing PET foams by an extrusion process. The molecular structure analysis and shear and elongatio ...
