Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental investigation of the flow of non-Newtonian fluids between rotating disks
TL;DR: In this article, the results of an experimental investigation on the flow of a non-Newtonian fluid between rotating, parallel disks are described, and the results are qualitatively different from those exhibited by linearly viscous fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite element modelling of field compaction of hot mix asphalt. Part I: Theory
TL;DR: Masad et al. as mentioned in this paper developed a constitutive model that is used in the simulation of the compaction of asphalt mixtures to comply with the principles of thermodynamics, and derived to represent the macroscopic behaviour of an asphalt mixture as a highly compressible viscoelastic material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Slow motion of a body in a fluid of second grade
TL;DR: In this article, the slow motion of a body in an incompressible homogeneous fluid of second grade was studied and it was shown that there exists an unique solution to the equations of motion for the fluid, wherein the inertial terms are ignored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflation, Extension, Torsion and Shearing of an Inhomogeneous Compressible Elastic Right Circular Annular Cylinder:
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the inflation, extension, torsion and shearing of an isotropic inhomogeneous compressible annular right circular cylinder and showed that the deformation of the cylinder can be both qualitatively and quantitatively far apart from its homogeneous counterpart.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of an Elastic Composite Cylinder due to the Diffusion of a Fluid
TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of a composite elastic cylinder due to diffusion of a fluid through it is studied, where the composite is assumed to be comprised of two linearized elastic bodies whose material moduli at a particular location depend on the concentration of fluid at the location, the value of the moduli decreasing with increasing fluid content.
