Generalized Newtonian fluids and electrorheological fluids

• Applicant: Professor Dr. Michael Ruzicka
• Subject Area: Mathematics
• Term: from 2002 to 2010
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 5469304

Based on previous theoretical investigations we want to perform a thorough numerical analysis and an implementation of an efficient and robust solver for the system describing the flow of generalized Newtonian fluids and electrorheological fluids. We combine the expertise in the numerical and theoretical analysis of generalized Newtonian and electrorheological fluids with the expertise in computational fluid dynamics.
