Abstract

This paper discusses the numerical modeling of capillary break-up extensional rheometer procedures (CaBER) using Arbitrary Lagrangian/Eulerian (ALE) methods. Different models, fluid viscosities and aspect-ratios are studied, employing a hybrid finite element/finite volume spatial approach. Finite el...
