Analysis and Implementation of Numerical Methods for Simulating Dilute Polymeric Fluids
In this thesis we develop, analyse and implement a number of numerical methods for simulating dilute polymeric fluids. We use a well-known model in which the polymeric fluid is represented by a suspension of dumbbells in a Newtonian solvent. This model is governed by a coupled Navier–Stokes–Fokker–P...
