Viscoelastic ribbons
A reduced model is presented for the dynamics of a slender sheet of a viscoelastic fluid. Starting with the Oldroyd-B constitutive model and exploiting an asymptotic analysis in the small aspect ratio of the sheet, equations are derived for the evolution of a ‘visco-elastica’. These depend on an ela...
