2. Rheology of dense particle suspensions in linear over-damped flow
Master-uppsats, KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk AkustikSammanfattning : Suspensions are composed of mixtures of particles and fluid and are omnipresent in natural phenomena and in industrial processes. While hydrodynamic interactions or lubrication forces between the particles are important in the dilute regime, they become of lesser significance when the concentration is increased, and direct particle contacts become dominant in the rheological response of concentrated suspensions, particularly those close to the maximum volume fraction where the suspension ceases to flow.
