This book is an ideal guide for those who need to make predictions about the behavior of non-Newtonian fluids in engineering. It stresses kinematics: the notion that there is a great interplay between the microscopic variables relevant to non-Newtonian fluids and the stresses developed in a given large-scale kinematic field. The volume surveys some typical non-Newtonian behavior, including information on classical continuum mechanics. It also provides a description of the two main kinematic fields--shearing and extensional flows. A survey of continuum and molecular-based relations is given to help readers through more complex flows needing and constitutive relation.

This book is a guide for those who wish to make predictions about the mechanical and thermal behavior of non-Newtonian materials in engineering and processing technology. An introductory survey of the field and a review of basic continuum mechanics serve to show the radical differences between elongational and shear behavior. Two chapters, one based on a continuum approach and the other using microstructural approaches, lead to useful mathematical descriptions of materials for engineering applications. And there is discussion of lubrication and related shearing flows, and fibre- spinning and film-blowing respectively. A long chapter is devoted to the important new field of computational rheology, and this is followed by chapters on stability and turbulence and the all-important temperature effects in flow. This new edition contains large amounts of material not previously available in book form - for example wall slip, suspension rheology, computational rheology and new results in stability theory.

Injection Molding: Integration of Theory and Modeling Methods

This book covers fundamental principles and numerical methods relevant to the modeling of the injection molding process. As injection molding processing is related to rheology, mechanical and chemical engineering, polymer science and computational methods, and is a rapidly growing field, the book provides a multidisciplinary and comprehensive introduction to the subjects required for an understanding of the complex process. It addresses the up-to-date status of fundamental understanding and simulation technologies, without losing sight of still useful classical approaches. The main chapters of the book are devoted to the currently active fields of flow-induced crystallization and orientation evolution of fiber suspensions, respectively, followed by detailed discussion of their effects on mechanical property, shrinkage and warpage of injection-molded products. The level of the proposed book will be suitable for interested scientists, R&amp;D engineers, application engineers, and graduate students in engineering.
