Edge-induced shear banding in entangled polymeric fluids

Zusammenfassung: | Despite decades of research, the question of whether solutions and melts of highly entangled polymers exhibit shear banding as their steady state response to a steadily imposed shear flow remains controversial. From a theoretical viewpoint, an important unanswered question is whether the underlying constitutive curve of shear stress \(\sigma\) as a function of shear rate \(\dot{\gamma}\) (for states of homogeneous shear) is monotonic, or has a region of negative slope, \(d\sigma/d\dot{\gamma} |
