A continuum-level model for nonisothermal polymer crystallization following a complex flow
is presented, along with a fundamental rule that may be employed to determine if the flow …

The deviation in wall thickness caused by core shift during the investment casting process
significantly impacts the strength and service life of hollow turbine blades. To address this …

Sudden inception of shearfree flows (also called stress growth in extension) is an extremely
useful set of rheological measurement techniques for bringing out fluid nonlinearities. The …

The effects of the operational conditions on the filling and cooling process in plastic molding
are studied. First, a semianalytical model is developed to study the effects of thermal …
