Polymer stress tensor in turbulent shear flows.
The interaction of polymers with turbulent shear flows is examined. We focus on the structure of the elastic stress tensor, which is proportional to the polymer conformation tensor. We examine this object in turbulent flows of increasing complexity. First is isotropic turbulence, then anisotropic (but homogenous) shear turbulence, and finally wall bounded turbulence. The main result of this pap...
متن کاملShear-Induced Deformation and Desorption of Grafted Polymer Layers
We describe the behaviour of grafted polymer layers in strong solvent shear flows within a model where only a subset of chains are exposed to the flow (hence to the tension arising from hydrodynamic drag forces), leaving the remainder protected. We show that for quite small values of the shear rate, I, the system reaches a self-regulating state where the lowest possible fraction of grafted chai...
متن کاملShear-Induced Homogeneous Deformation Twinning in FCC
The {111}<11 2 > shear stress-displacement behavior for face-centered cubic (fcc) metals, aluminum and copper, is calculated using empirical potentials proposed by Mishin and by Ercolessi, based on the embedded atom method (EAM), and compared with published ab initio calculations. In copper close agreement is observed in the results given by the Mishin potential for both the ideal shear strengt...
متن کاملPrediction of multiple overshoots in shear stress during fast flows of bidisperse polymer melts
We present a differential constitutive model of stress relaxation in polydisperse linear polymer melts and solutions that contains contributions from reptation, contour-length fluctuations, and chain stretching. The predictions of the model during fast start-up and steady shear flows of polymer melts are in accord with experimental observations. Moreover, in accordance with reported experimenta...
متن کاملThe effect of confinement-induced shear on drop deformation and breakup in microfluidic extensional flows
Droplets of de-ionized water and four aqueous surfactant solutions were generated in oil using a microfluidic flow-focusing device. The morphological developments of the drops in extensional flow and confinement-induced shear flow at various extension rates were studied using a hyperbolic contraction. This novel approach to droplet deformation within a microfluidic device allowed the probing of...
