TL;DR: It was thought that the most important characteristics of soft tissues were their complex mechanical properties: they often exhibit nonlinear, anisotropic, nearly incoherent, and often incoherent properties as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an extended analysis of the genesis and development of fluids of differential type, and show that certain ideas of flow retardation and model approximation have been consistently misinterpreted.

TL;DR: In this article, a discussion of a mixture of immiscible fluids is given, and the status of Darcy's law within the context of mixture theory is discussed. And the entropy inequality constitutive theory steady state problems diffusing singular surface wave propagation in solids infused with fluids are discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the flow of an incompressible second-order fluid past a stretching sheet is studied, and the authors present a study of the flow in the presence of a stretch sheet.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors develop a thermodynamic approach for modeling a class of viscoelastic fluids based on the notion of an evolving natural configuration, where the material has a family of elastic responses governed by a stored energy function that is parametrized by the ''natural configurations''. Changes in the current natural configuration result in dissipative behavior that is determined by a rate of dissipation function.
