We review theoretical work on the rheology of fibre suspensions. We seek to clarify one or
two confusions in published work and also give a small improvement to Batchelor's formula …

A Galerkin finite element solution is developed for the flow of fiber suspensions. Primary
variables are velocity, pressure, and a second‐order tensor describing the fiber orientation …

In this paper, fiber motion near a planar wall was investigated using a planar shear flow
apparatus. Fibers were placed (one at a time) perpendicular to the flow direction at various …

An experimental study and a numerical modeling analysis are carried out to examine the
effects of fiber‐fiber interactions and coupling between fiber orientation and polymer chains …

Publisher Summary This chapter analyzes the general behavior of fiber suspension flows,
with a particular attention focusing on the decoupled prediction of the fiber orientation …

This paper is an experimental investigation of the deformation and relaxation of a Newtonian
drop suspended in a PIB/PB Boger fluid. The suspending fluid is undergoing a planar …

A systematic analysis of the melt rheological behavior of a commercial starch‐based
(MaterBi®) matrix composite reinforced with short sisal fibers is presented. The effects of …

Drilling fluids consist of several components with different physical and structural form which
can be assumed as complex fluids. Optimum performance of drilling process could be …

The rheological behavior of suspensions of short glass fibers in different fluids has been
studied. Transient tests on presheared samples of fiber suspensions in Boger fluids showed …

A viscosity overshoot of fibers filled in a polymer melt under a shear flow is much tougher to
predict via the existing constitutive equations of suspension rheology in a viscous media …
