Since the first publications of large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) responses of
polymeric materials in the 1960s, different approaches have been developed to express …

The analysis of flow field is essential for the fluid dynamics and the internal mechanism of
hydraulic machinery. The use of deep learning technology has revolutionized the field of …

The physics of macromolecular orientation has been used to explain the elasticity of
polymeric liquids. Specifically, by first sculpting a rigid bead–rod likeness of the …

One good way to explain the elasticity of a polymeric liquid is to just consider the orientation
distribution of the macromolecules. When exploring how macromolecular architecture affects …

General rigid bead-rod theory is actively used for connecting the complex viscosity of
polymeric liquids to the structure of macromolecules. Using general rigid bead-rod theory …

Macromolecular theory for the rheology of polymer liquids usually proceeds from a scale
much larger than chemical bonding. For instance, a bead in a general rigid bead-rod theory …

Geometric confinements play an important role in many physical and biological processes
and significantly affect the rheology and behavior of colloidal suspensions at low Reynolds …

Microfluidic design, fabrication, and experiments have developed rapidly, leading to lab-on-
chip separation or fractionation. In this work, we design a continuous concentrator for …

With general rigid bead-rod modeling, we recreate shapes of complex macromolecular
structures with beads, by rigidly fixing bead positions relative to one another. General rigid …

One of the great fascinations in polymer science and engineering is how macromolecular
branching can impart elasticity to polymeric liquids. In this thesis, we use macromolecular …
