2018 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Complex Fluids: Macromolecules

This session of contributed presentations will focus on the hydrodynamics of complex fluids. Topics of interest include flow-induced microstructure, the effects of non-Newtonian rheology on flow, viscoelasticity, general polymeric fluids and macromolecular solutions.

Chair
