Rheometry testing and the DSC measurement of five thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers (TLCP) have been carried out. The dynamic viscosities of the five TLCPs show a typical shear-thinning behaviour obeying the power-law with the power indices from 0.2 to 0.3. When these TLCPs are heated above the melting temperatures determined by the DSC measurements, the dynamic viscosities first rapidly decrease by 2～3 orders of magnitude then level off, finally increase gradually with the further increasing of temperature. The steady shearing exhibited the same behaviour as the dynamic shearing, but serious edge fracture of material slippage out of the plates occurred. The abnormal temperature dependence of the viscosities can be explained by the nematic-isotropic transition. By using the concept of activation energy, we propose a simple model which can fit the shear-thinning behaviour quite well and predict qualitatively correct temperature effects.

비상용성 고분자는 그 계면의 특성에 의해서 복잡한 유변학적 거동을 갖는데 그러 한 거동을 해석하기 위해서 최근에 제안된 구성방정식을 토대로 소폭 진동 전단 흐름장에서 의 유변학적 물성과 몰폴로지 전개를 예측한 바 있다. Takahashi[2]등은 이런 흐름하에서의 계면은 거의 변하지 않음을 보여주었고 따라서 이경우는 상대적으로 쉬운편이었다. 본연구 에서는 정상전단흐름장하에서의 몰폴로지 전개에 대한 구성방정식을 간단한 형태로 표현함 으로써 실제 산업계에서 이용될수 있도록 하였다. 그러한 해석을 통하여 원래의 모델에서 제시되었던 3개의 실험변수를 2개로 줄일수 있었으며 계면의 특성을 잘 나타내 주는 새로운 변수($textsc{k}$)를 도입하였다. 계면의 특성을 잘 나타내 주는 이새로운 변수를 통하여 그 계면의 영향을 예측할수 있었다. 한편 분산상의 파괴, 변형, 합체 메카니즘을 모델에 제시되었던 변 수값들을 통하여 해석하였고 이를 실험적인 데이터와 비교해 보았다.

We report the first steps of a collaborative project between the University of Queensland, Polyflow, Michelin, SK Chemicals, and RMIT University, on simulation, validation and application of a recently introduced constitutive model designed to describe branched polymers. Whereas much progress has been made on predicting the complex flow behaviour of many - in particular linear - polymers, it sometimes appears difficult to predict simultaneously shear thinning and extensional strain hardening behaviour using traditional constitutive models. Recently a new viscoelastic model based on molecular topology, was proposed by McLeish and carson (1998). We explore the predictive power of a differential multi-mode version of the porn-pom model for the flow behaviour of two commercial polymer melts: a (long-chain branched) low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and a (linear) high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The model responses are compared to elongational recovery experiments published by Langouche and Debbaut (19c99), and start-up of simple shear flow, stress relaxation after simple and reverse step strain experiments carried out in our laboratory.

This study presents 1-dimensional simple model for sheet casting or rectangular fiber spinning process. In order to achieve this goal, we introduce the concept of force flux balance at the die exit, which assigns for the extensional flow outside the die the initial condition containing the information of shear flow history inside the die. With the Leonov constitutive equation that predicts non-vanishing second normal stress difference in shear flow, we are able to describe the anisotropic swelling behavior of the extrudate at least qualitatively. In other words, the negative value of the second normal stress difference causes thickness swelling much higher than width of extrudate. This result implies the importance of choosing the rheological model in the analysis of polymer processing operations, since the constitutive equation with the vanishing second normal stress difference is shown to exhibit the characteristic of isotropic swelling, that is, the thickness swell ratio always equal to the ratio in width direction.

Atherosclerosis is a disease that narrows, thickens, hardens, and restructures a blood vessel due to substantial plaque deposit. The geometric models of the considered stenotic blood flow are three different types of constriction of cross-sectional area of blood vessel; 25%, 50%, and 75% of constriction. The computational model with the fluid-structure interaction is introduced to investigate the wall shear stresses, blood flow field and recirculation zone in the stenotic vessels. The velocity profile in a compliant stenotic artery with various constrictions is subjected to prescribed physiologic waveform. The computational simulations were performed, in which the physiological flow through a compliant axisymmetric stenotic blood vessel was solved using commercial software ADINA 8.4 developed by finite element method. We demonstrated comparisons of the wall shear stress with or without the fluid-structure interaction and their velocity profiles under the physiological flow condition in the compliant stenotic artery. The present results enhance our understanding of the hemodynamic characteristics in a compliant stenotic artery.

Numerical investigations have been conducted on the assessment of the performance of drug-eluting stent. Computational fluid dynamics is applied to investigate the flow disturbances and drug distributions released from the stent in the immediate vicinity of the given idealized stent in the protrusion into the flow domain. Our simulations have revealed the drug concentration in the flow field due to the presence of a drug-eluting stent within an arterial segment. Wall shear stress increases with Reynolds number for a given stent diameter, while it increases with stent diameter for a given Reynolds number. The drug concentration is dependent on both Reynolds number and stent geometry. In pulsatile flow, the minimum drug concentration in the zone of inter-wire spacing occurs at the maximum acceleration of the inlet flow while the maximum drug concentration gains at the maximum deceleration of the inlet flow. These results provide an understanding of the flow physics in the vicinity of drug-eluting stents and suggest strategies for optimal performance of drug-eluting stent to minimize flow disturbance.

뮬라이트, 지르코니아, 뮬라이트/지르코니아 비수성 현탁액의 분산 및 레올로지에 미치는 공정보조제의 영향이 침전밀도, 점도, 입자크기를 측정함으로써 검토되었다. 현탁액의 분산안정성 (높은 침전밀도와 낮은 점도로 특징 된)은 분산제+가소제+결합제를 함유하는 경우에 비하여 분산제 또는 분산제+가소제를 함유하는 경우가 우수하였다. Ball mulling 후의 입자크기분포는 공정보조제의 종류에 거의 영향을 받지 않았다. 결합제를 부가적으로 함유하는 현탁액은 상대적으로 강한 shear thinning 거동을 나타내었다.
