Abstract

The steady motion of a rotating sphere is analysed through two contrasting viscoelastic models, a constant viscosity (FENE-CR) model and a shear-thinning (LPTT) model. Giesekus (1970) presented an intriguing rotating viscoelastic flow, which to date has not been completely explained. In order to inv...
