Journal ArticleDOI

Simulation of the film blowing process for semicrystalline polymers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulate the film blowing process using a fully thermodynamic model developed to study crystallization in polymers, where the polymer melts are modeled as a rate-type viscoelastic fluid and the crystalline solid polymer is modeled as an anisotropic elastic solid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homogenization of a generalization of Brinkman's equation for the flow of a fluid with pressure dependent viscosity through a rigid porous solid

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of Brinkman's equation governing the flow of an incompressible fluid through a porous medium is considered, taking into account the variation of the viscosity with the pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical oscillators described by a system of differential-algebraic equations

TL;DR: The classical framework for studying the equations governing the motion of lumped parameter systems presumes one can provide expressions for the forces in terms of kinematical quantities for the individual constituents.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Development of a model for an air brake system with leaks

TL;DR: A mathematical model for an air brake system in the presence of leaks is presented with a view towards developing a diagnostic system based on this model in the near future and a simple leak detection scheme is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thin-Film Flow of an Inhomogeneous Fluid with Density-Dependent Viscosity

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the constitutive response of this class of fluids using a thermodynamic framework put into place to describe the dissipative response of materials where the materials' stored energy depends on the gradient of the density.
