The present study proposes modified temperature-dependent non-Newtonian viscosity model and investigates flow characters and heat transfer enhancement of the viscoelastic non-Newtonian fluid in a 2:1 rectangular duct. The proposed modified temperature dependent viscosity model has non-zero value near the high temperature and high shear rate region while on the existing viscosity models have zero value. Two versions of thermal boundary conditions involving difference combination of heated walls and adiabatic walls are analyzed in this study. The combined effect of temperature dependent viscosity, buoyancy, and secondary flow caused by second normal stress difference are ail considered. The Reiner-Rivlin model is adopted as a viscoelastic fluid model to simulate the secondary flow caused by second normal stress difference. Calculated Nusselt numbers by the modified temperature-dependent viscosity model gives under prediction than the existing temperature-dependent viscosity model in the regions of thermally developed with same secondary normal stress difference coefficients with experimental results in the regions of thermally developed. The heat transfer enhancement of the viscoelastic fluid in a 2:1 rectangular duct is highly dependent on the secondary flow caused by the magnitude of second normal stress difference.

The concrete damage plasticity (CDP) model is widely used to simulate concrete behaviour using either implicit or explicit analysis methods. To effectively execute the models and resolve convergence issues in implicit analysis, activating the viscosity parameter of this material model is a common practice. Despite the frequent application of implicit analysis to analyse concrete structures with the CDP model, the viscosity parameter significantly varies among available models and lacks consistency. The adjustment of the viscosity parameter at the element/structural level disregards its indirect impact on the material. Therefore, the accuracy of the numerical model is confined to the validated range and might not hold true for other values, often explored in parametric studies subsequent to validations. To address these challenges and develop a unified numerical model for varied conditions, a quasi-static analysis using the explicit solver was conducted in this study. Fifteen thick flat plates tested under load control with different geometries and different eccentric loads were considered to verify the accuracy of the model. The study first investigated various concrete material behaviours under compression and tension as well as the concrete tensile strength to identify the most reliable models from previous methodologies. The study compared the results using both implicit and explicit analysis. It was found that, in implicit analysis, the viscosity parameter should be as low as 0.0001 to avoid affecting material properties. However, at the structural level, the optimum value may need adjustment between 0.00001 to 0.0001 with changing geometries and loading type. This observation raises concerns about further parametric study if the specific value of the viscosity parameter is used. Additionally, activating the viscosity parameter in load control simulations confirmed its inability to capture the peak load. Conversely, the unified explicit model accurately simulated the behaviour of the test specimens under varying geometries, load eccentricities, and column sizes. This study recommends restricting implicit solutions to the viscosity values proposed in this research. Alternatively, for highly nonlinear problems under load control simulation, explicit analysis stands as an effective approach, ensuring unified parameters across a wide range of applications without convergence problems.

The purpose of this study is mainly directed towards present of viewpoints on critical and commentary analysis on blood rheology, blood viscosity models, and physiological flow conditions. Understanding these basics is fundamental to meet the need for a sufficient and reliable CFD model of blood. Most of the used viscosity models on this manner have determined from parameter fitting on experimental viscosity data. Availability of experimental data from literature to define viscosity models of CFD analysis should be accurately chosen and treated in order to avoid any errors. Several basic gaps that limit the CFD model results are identified and given opportunities for future research.

The two-fluid model is widely used to describe two-phase flows in complex systems such as nuclear reactors. Although the two-phase flow was successfully simulated, the standard two-fluid model suffers from an ill-posed nature. There are several remedies for the ill-posedness of the one-dimensional (1D) two-fluid model; among those, artificial viscosity is the focus of this study. Some previous works added artificial diffusion terms to both mass and momentum equations to render the two-fluid model well-posed and demonstrated that this method provided a numerically converging model. However, they did not consider mass conservation, which is crucial for analyzing a closed reactor system. In fact, the total mass is not conserved in the previous models. This study improves the artificial viscosity model such that the 1D incompressible two-fluid model is well-posed, and the total mass is conserved. The water faucet and Kelvin-Helmholtz instability flows were simulated to test the effect of the proposed artificial viscosity model. The results indicate that the proposed artificial viscosity model effectively remedies the ill-posedness of the two-fluid model while maintaining a negligible total mass error.

We study the rheological properties of concentrated polymer solution and the melt under simple shear and elon-gational flow using Brownian dynamicssimulation. In order to describe the anisotropic molecular motion, we modifiedthe Giesekus' mobility tensor by incorporating the finitely extensible non-linear elastic (FENE) spring force into dumbbell model. To elucidate the nature of this model, our simulation results are compared with the data of FENE-P ("P"standsfor the Perterin) dumbbell model and experiments. While in steady state both original FENE and FENE-P models exhibit a similar viscosity response,the growthof viscosity becomes dissimilar as the anisotropy decreases and the flowrate increases. The steady state viscosity obtained from the simulation well describes the experiments including the shear-thinning behavior in shear flow and viscosity-thinning behavior in elongational flow. But the growth of viscosity oforiginal FENE dumbbell model cannot describe the experimental results in both flow fields.

본 연구에서는 식생이 포설된 홍수터를 포함하는 복단면 개수로 흐름의 수위를 예측하기 위하여 유효 전단응력기법에 근거한 일차원 모형을 제시하였다. 제안된 모형은 주수로와 홍수터 접합부에서 발생하는 운동량 교환효과를 와점성계수 개념을 이용하여 반영할 수 있다. 주수로와 홍수터의 경계에서 발생하는 경계와점성계수는 3차원 레이놀즈 응력 모형을 이용하여 결정하였다. 경계와점성계수의 영향을 파악하기 위하여 민감도분석을 수행하였다. 경계와점성계수의 변화에 대하여 배수곡선의 변화는 크지 않았으나, 홍수터에서 부담하는 유량은 경계와점성계수에 비례하여 증가하였다. 마지막으로 식생된 홍수터의 식생밀도 및 침수비에 따른 경계와점성계수의 변화를 살펴보았다. 계산된 경계와점성계수는 식생밀도와 침수비에 비례하며, 대략$(2-5){\times}\;10^{-4}$ 정도의 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

The relative viscosity was measured at different filler loadings for a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin and hexahydro-4-methylphthalic anhydride hardener system filled with micro/nano hybrid silica. Various empirical models were fitted to the experimental data and a fitting parameter such as critical filler fractions (${\phi}_{max}$) was estimated. Among the models, the Zhang-Evans model gave the best fit to the viscosity data. For all the silica loadings used, ln (relative viscosity) varied linearly with filler loadings. Using the Zhang-Evans model and the linearity characteristics of the viscosity change, simple methods to predict the relative viscosity below ${\phi}_{max}$ are presented in this work. The predicted viscosity values from the two methods at hybrid silica fractions of $\phi$ = 0.086 and 0.1506 were confirmed for a micro:nano = 1:1 hybrid filler. As a result, the difference between measured and predicted values was less than 11%, indicating that the proposed predicting methods are in good agreement with the experiment.

본 논문은 최적설계기법을 적용하여 Cross-WLF 모델의 계수 값을 효과적으로 추정하는 것이다. 사출성형 공정의 해석에서 주로 사용되는 Cross-WLF 점도 모델은 온도와 전단율의 영향이 민감한 고분자의 유변학적 특성을 잘 모사하는 모델로 널리 사용되고 있다. 정확한 폴리머 유변학적 특성 예측을 위해서는 정확한 Cross-WLF 계수 값의 추정은 필수이다. 실험적으로 획득한 데이터의 점도 값과 Cross-WLF의 계수 값을 설계변수로 가정하여 계산한 점도 값이 일치한다면, 최적화 기법을 통해 정의된 Cross-WLF모델이 실험 데이터를 정확하게 모사하는 것이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 Cross-WLF 모델을 통해 계산된 점도와 실험 데이터의 차이를 최소화하는 목적함수로 Cross-WLF의 계수 값을 설계변수로 정의하여 연구를 수행하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 최적화기법의 타당성으로 확인하기 위하여 몇개의 소재를 대상으로 하여 Moldflow에서 제공하는 Cross-WLF 계수 값과 본 논문에서 제안한 방법으로 획득한 계수 값를 비교하여 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 또한, Moldflow Plastic Lab의 실제 측정 데이터를 활용하여 추정한 결과 제안한 방법의 효율성 및 타당성을 입증하였다.

기존 FUNWAVE-TVD 버전 2.1 모형을 수정한 본 모형의 검증을 위해 고립파 실험, Vincent and Briggs(1989)의 비쇄파 및 쇄파 실험, Luth et al. (1994)의 수리실험을 수행하였다. 쇄파 실험의 경우 기존 결과와 비교하기 위하여 eddy viscosity를 이용한 쇄파 방법도 포함하였다. Eddy viscosity 쇄파 방법을 이용하여 Vincent and Briggs(1989)의 쇄파 실험에 적용한 결과 수정된 모형에서는 수중천퇴 중심의 y축을 기준으로 파랑류(wave-induced current)의 대칭성이 유지되었으나 FUNWAVE-TVD 버전 2.1 모형에서는 대칭성이 유지되지 않았다. 또한 eddy viscosity 쇄파 방법을 이용한 경우가 천수방정식으로 전환하여 쇄파를 모의하는 방법보다 관측치에 더 가깝다. 그리고 FUNWAVE-TVD 버전 2.1 모형에 사용한 기법들과 비교하기 위하여 Erduran et al.(2005)이 제시한 4차 정확도의 MUSCL-TVD 기법과 minmod limiter를 이용한 3차 정확도의 기법을 적용하여 고립파의 전파 양상을 비교 검토하였다.
