Journal ArticleDOI
Study of a variant of Stokes’ first and second problems for fluids with pressure dependent viscosities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend the seminal work of Stokes concerning the flow due to a suddenly accelerated plate and an oscillating plate for the Navier-Stokes fluid, to a fluid with pressure dependent viscosity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A class of exact solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend Berker's analysis by allowing the plates to be porous and show that an infinite set of solutions is possible to the flow of two infinite parallel plates rotating with the same angular velocity about an axis.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Diffusion of Fluids Through Solids Undergoing Large Deformations
TL;DR: The authors investigated the effect of various boundary conditions on the diffusion process of a Newtonian fluid through a nonlinearly elastic solid undergoing large deformations, and found that the results are quite insensitive to the boundary conditions in that the predictions agree exceedingly well with the experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
An implicit thermomechanical theory based on a Gibbs potential formulation for describing the response of thermoviscoelastic solids
TL;DR: In this article, an implicit constitutive for the thermoviscoelastic behavior of polymers, based on a thermomechanical framework, is developed. But the authors do not consider the effect of the temperature on the thermodynamic properties of the polymers and do not explicitly consider viscoelastic or inelastic strain as a primitive variable.
Journal ArticleDOI
A viscoelastic fluid model for describing the mechanics of a coarse ligated plasma clot
TL;DR: A model for a particular type of clot, formed from human plasma, is proposed within a thermodynamic framework that recognizes that viscoelastic fluids possess multiple natural configurations.
