Numerical Simulation of Extrusion Flows of Polymer Melts and Disclike Particle Suspensions Based on Stochastic Calculation of Their Mesoscale Structures

Flows of complex fluids in a single-screw extruder were numerically simulated using a coupling method of continuum-mechanics-based computations for macroscopic flows and stochastic simulations for fluid mesoscale structures and the advantage of micro-macro simulations for complex fluids was investig...
