Continuous GPS measurements from Colima, Mexico during 4/93-6/01, bracketing the Oct. 9, 1995 M = 8.0 Colima-Jalisco earthquake, provide new constraints on Rivera plate subduction mechanics. Modeling of margin-normal strain ...

The deformation of nylon drops in polyethylene, with and without an interfacial agent, in an extensional flow has been studied. The presence of an interfacial agent reduces the size of the dispersed phase, and the deformation ...

A simple model consisting of the Upper Convected Maxwell constitutive equation and a kinetic equation for destruction and construction of structure, first proposed by Fredrickson in 1970, is used here to reproduce the ...

In this work, the rheological behavior of complex fluids is analyzed with a model based on the classical transient network formulation, in which the description of nonlinear viscoelasticity and time-dependent phenomena ...

The nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of the cetyltrimethylammonium p-toluenesulfonate (CTAT)-water system is investigated in steady and unsteady shear flow as a function of surfactant concentration and temperature. A ...

The viscoelastic behaviour of worm-like micelles in small-amplitude oscillatory, steady simple shear and uniaxial extensional flows are analyzed with a model that couples the Oldroyd-B constitutive equation with a kinetic ...
