Computational rheometry of yielding and viscoplastic flow in vane-and-cup rheometer fixtures

A planar two-dimensional computational analysis is presented to qualify traditional and fractal vane-in-cup geometries for accurate rheometry of simple viscoplastic fluids with and without slip. Numerical simulations based on an adaptive augmented Lagrangian scheme are used to study the two-dimensio...
