Orientation of long bodies falling in a viscoelastic liquid
نویسنده
چکیده
New experiments on the orientation of a cylinder settling in viscoelastic and pseudoplastic fluids are described in an attempt to identify the main mechanisms which control the orientation of the cylinder as it falls.

Creep Strain and Stress Analysis in Laminated Composite Pres-sure Vessels
This study investigates the time-dependent long-term creep strain in a composite cylinder made of glass/vinylester with a unidirectional ply. The cylinder is subjected to an internal pressure and the boundary condition is free–free and acts as thermal insulation. The classical lamination theory (CLT) is used to derive the governing equations as a second-order equation to determine the radial, c...
متن کاملCalculation of tunnel behavior in viscoelastic rock mass
Wall displacements and ground pressure acting on the lining of a tunnel increase with time. These time-dependent deformations are both due to face advance effect and to the time-dependent behavior of the rock mass. Viscoelastic materials exhibit both viscous and elastic behaviors. Thorough this study, the effect of different linear viscoelastic models including Maxwell, Kelvin and Kelvin-Voigt...
متن کاملSoft viscoelastic properties of nuclear actin age oocytes due to gravitational creep.
The actin cytoskeleton helps maintain structural organization within living cells. In large X. laevis oocytes, gravity becomes a dominant force and is countered by a nuclear actin network that prevents liquid-like nuclear bodies from immediate sedimentation and coalescence. However, nuclear actin's mechanical properties, and how they facilitate the stabilization of nuclear bodies, remain unknow...

متن کاملA weak-coupling expansion applied to the motion of a set- tling rod in a viscoelastic fluid
Viscoelastic fluids are fluids that, in addition to having the property of viscosity, also have the property of elasticity. This is often the result of the introduction of a polymeric material to a non-viscoelastic fluid— the presence of these materials greatly affects the behavior of the fluid by introducing additional internal stresses. An example of this— and the focus of this paper— is the ...
