Abstract

This study is concerned with the modelling of thixotropic and viscoelastoplastic material systems, contrasting two approaches in the development of such constitutive models. Accordingly, departure from Oldroyd-B-like behaviour is engineered through, first, a new micellar viscoelastic-thixotropic mod...
