Computational rheology /
Modern day high-performance computers are making available to 21st-century scientists solutions to rheological flow problems of ever-increasing complexity. Computational rheology is a fast-moving subject - problems which only 10 years ago were intractable, such as 3D transient flows of polymeric liq...
