The Martin-Siggia-Rose generating functional method and the nonpertubative Hartree approximation are used to derive the generalized Rouse equation for the test chain. It is shown that the interaction of the test chain with the surrounding matrix renormalizes the bare friction and the spring constants of the test chain in such a way that the memory function as well as the bending dependent elastic modulus appear. We find that below the glass transition temperature T G of the matrix the Rouse modes of the test chain can be frozen and moreover the freezing temperatures (or the ergodicity-nonergodicity transition temperature) T c (p) depends from the Rouse mode index p.","PeriodicalId":14774,"journal":{"name":"Journal De Physique Ii","volume":"42 1","pages":"1469-1487"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86574452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fiber elasticity contains isotropic as well as orientation dependent surface contributions, and the anisotropic bulk viscous dissipation is described by three viscosity coefficients. For liquid crystalline fibers with molecular orientation along the fiber's axis the model predicts that capillary instabilities will break the fiber into an array of droplets, just as in the case of isotropic Newtonian fibers. The characteristic growth rate and wavelength of the instability are functions of the orientation dependent surface tension and the extensional viscosity. The liquid crystal surface elasticity tends to increase the wavelength and to decrease the growth rate of the fastest growing mode when compared to that of Newtonian fibers. Higher extensional viscosities decrease the time scale and increase the size scale of the new droplet morphology that emerges from unstable axisymmetric liquid crystalline fibers.","PeriodicalId":14774,"journal":{"name":"Journal De Physique Ii","volume":"17 1","pages":"1001-1011"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89121603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Numerical results are given in the graphical form. considerable attention during the last decade. We consider in this paper, the weakly nonlinear physical system, the interaction of capillary gravity waves with a subsonic flow moving uni- formly parallel to the undisturbed liquid surface in the presence of magnetic field. The same problem without magnetic field when the liquid is of finite depth has been investigated earlier by Nayfeh and Hassan (1). The inclusion of nonlinear terms results in amplitude modulation. In various problems of interest, it has been shown that the long-time slow modulation of wave amplitude is governed by the nonlinear Schr0dinger equation. In recent years, evolution of wave packets on the surface of an electrically conducting fluid has been investigated by a number of workers. El Shehawey (2) discussed the nonlinear condi- tions of stability and instability of electro-hydrodynamic Kelvin-Helmholtz mechanisms in the presence of a normal field in the absence of surface charges on the interface. Pusri and Malik (3) investigated the propagation of wave packets on the surface of an electrically conducting fluid of uniform depth in the presence of a tangential magnetic field in three dimensions by extending the analyses of Djordjevic and Redekopp (4) and Ablowitz and Segur (5) to incorporate magne- tohydrodynamic effects. The method of multiple scales was very successfully used by Hasimoto and Ono (6) to derive a single equation describing the long-time evolution of the envelope of a packet of plane finite amplitude gravity waves.

Kumaran","doi":"10.1051/JP2:1997164","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1051/JP2:1997164","url":null,"abstract":"The stability of the flow of a fluid adjacent to a polymer gel is studied using a linear stability analysis. The system consists of a Newtonian fluid of density rho, viscosity eta and thickness R flowing adjacent to a polymer gel of density rho, modulus of elasticity E, viscosity eta(g) and thickness HR. The base flow in the fluid is a plane Couette flow. The Navier-Stokes equations for the fluid and the elasticity equations for the gel are solved numerically, and the characteristic equation is obtained using the boundary conditions at the interface. The characteristic equation for the growth rate is a non-linear equation, so analytical solutions cannot be obtained in general. Numerical solutions are obtained by analytic continuation using the exact solutions at zero Reynolds number as the starting guess. The growth rate depends on the parameter Sigma = (rho ER2/eta(2)), the ratio of thickness H, the ratio of viscosities eta(r) = (eta(g)/eta) and wave number k. For eta(r) = 0, it is found that the perturbations become unstable when the Reynolds number is increased beyond a transition value Re-t for all Sigma and k. The critical Reynolds number Re-c, which is the minimum of the Re-t - K curve, increases proportional to Sigma for Sigma much less than 1, and it shows a scaling behavior Re-c proportional to Sigma(beta) for Sigma much greater than 1, where 0.75 less than or equal to beta less than or equal to 0.8. Re-c decreases with increase in the ratio of thickness of gel to fluid H, but the scaling behavior remains unchanged. A variation in the ratio of viscosities eta(r) qualitatively changes the stability characteristics. For relatively low values of 1 less than or equal to Sigma less than or equal to 10(3), it is found that the transition Reynolds number decreases as eta(r) is increased, indicating that an increase in the gel viscosity has a destabilizing effect. For relatively higher values of 10(4) less than or equal to Sigma less than or equal to 10(5), the transition Reynolds number increases as eta(r) is increased and goes through a turning point. In this case, perturbations are unstable only when eta(r) is less than a maximum value eta(max), and there is no instability for eta(r) > eta(max).","PeriodicalId":14774,"journal":{"name":"Journal De Physique Ii","volume":"72 1","pages":"947-963"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84498752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
