Viscoelasticity and Rheology covers the proceedings of a symposium by the same title, conducted by the Mathematics Research Center held at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on October 16-18, 1984. The contributions to the symposium are divided into four broad categories, namely, experimental results, constitutive theories, mathematical analysis, and computation. This 16-chapter work begins with experimental topics, including the motion of bubbles in viscoelastic fluids, wave propagation in viscoelastic solids, flows through contractions, and cold-drawing of polymers. The next chapters covering constitutive theories explore the molecular theories for polymer solutions and melts based on statistical mechanics, the use and limitations of approximate constitutive theories, a comparison of constitutive laws based on various molecular theories, network theories and some of their advantages in relation to experiments, and models for viscoplasticity. These topics are followed by discussions of the existence, regularity, and development of singularities, change of type, interface problems in viscoelasticity, existence for initial value problems and steady flows, and propagation and development of singularities. The remaining chapters deal with the numerical simulation of flow between eccentric cylinders, flow around spheres and bubbles, the hole pressure problem, and a review of computational problems related to various constitutive laws. This book will prove useful to chemical engineers, researchers, and students.

Lattice-gas cellular automata (LGCA) and lattice Boltzmann models (LBM) are relatively new and promising methods for the numerical solution of nonlinear partial differential equations. The book provides an introduction for graduate students and researchers. Working knowledge of calculus is required and experience in PDEs and fluid dynamics is recommended. Some peculiarities of cellular automata are outlined in Chapter 2. The properties of various LGCA and special coding techniques are discussed in Chapter 3. Concepts from statistical mechanics (Chapter 4) provide the necessary theoretical background for LGCA and LBM. The properties of lattice Boltzmann models and a method for their construction are presented in Chapter 5.

Although viscoelastic flows are characterized by a very low Mach number regime, it involves a weakly compressible liquid phase, which requires a special treatment. This work is devoted to the mathematical modeling and numerical simulation for viscoelastic fluids. It follows directly a previous publication, PhD dissertation of the author. A Unified purely hyperbolic mathematical model for compressible and incompressible viscoelastic fluids is presented. To complete the mathematical model, a complete chapter is devoted to describe a new procedure to determine the correct type and number of boundary conditions for hyperbolic systems. Then a new model describing the non-isothermal viscoelastic flows is introduced while keeping the hyperbolic nature of the system. The main advantage of the proposed model over the existing ones is its hyperbolic nature, which overcomes some of the drawbacks of the available models. The proposed model is then solved numerically using a hybrid finite element/finite difference scheme.
