Macromolecular Hydrodynamics
2.341J · Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering · Graduate · Spring 2016
Prof. Robert C Armstrong, Prof. Gareth McKinley
The topics cover physical phenomena in polymeric liquids undergoing deformation and flow; kinematics and material functions for complex fluids; techniques of viscometry, rheometry; and linear viscoelastic measurements for polymeric fluids. Also, generalized Newtonian fluids; continuum mechnanics, frame invariance, and convected derivatives for finite strain viscoelasticity; differential and integral constitutive equations for viscoelastic fluids; analytical solutions to isothermal and non-isoth…
