Flow phase diagrams for concentration-coupled shear banding
Suzanne M Fielding, Peter D Olmsted
After surveying the experimental evidence for concentration coupling in the shear banding of wormlike micellar surfactant solutions, we present flow phase diagrams spanned by shear…
Kinetics of the shear banding instability in startup flows
Suzanne M. Fielding, Peter D. Olmsted
Motivated by experiments on wormlike micelles, we study the early stages of the shear banding instability using a two-fluid Johnson-Segalman model. We perform a linear stability an…
Early stages of the shear banding instability in wormlike micelles
Suzanne M. Fielding, Peter D. Olmsted
We study the early stages of the shear banding instability in semidilute wormlike micelles using the non-local Johnson-Segalman model with a two-fluid coupling of the concentration…
Ageing and Rheology in Soft Materials
S. M. Fielding, P. Sollich, M. E. Cates
We study theoretically the role of ageing in the rheology of soft materials. We define several generalized rheological response functions suited to ageing samples (in which time tr…
