2010 Annual Meeting

Session: Non-Newtonian Flows and Nonlinear Hydrodynamics

This session of contributed talks focuses on hydrodynamic phenomena in non-Newtonian fluids, including macroscopic flows and rheology, as well as phenomena that stem from nonlinearities in the governing hydrodynamic equations.
