165 Mixing in Rheologically Complex Fluids


Description:
Mixing of complex fluids is fundamental for a broad range of applications including materials assembly, microfluidics and biomedical devices. Significant mixing challenges are associated with rheologically complex systems arising from non-Newtonian effects, developing fluid structure, polymerization reactions, etc.
