| Research Abstract |
The present simulation aimed to develop the integrated numerical method for the simulation of flow-induced structures and macro flows of complex fluids. Brownian dynamics simulation models for various fluids were proposed and macro flow analyses coupling with the micro simulation of flow-induced structures via a stress tensor were performed. In experimental studies, the relation between the flow behavior of wormlike micelle dispersion systems and their flow-induced structures was investigated. The experimental results provided useful information and knowledge for the development of numerical models.
