Effects of viscoelasticity on the retraction of a sheared drop

Effects of drop and matrix viscoelasticity on the retraction of a sheared drop are numerically investigated. Retraction of an Oldroyd-B drop in a Newtonian matrix is initially faster and later slower with increasing drop Deborah number. The observed behavior is explained using an ordinary differenti...
