We have learned that the GLVE Summary: Generalized Linear-Viscoelastic Constitutive is a good model for: Equations
• Deformations at low rates PRO: •A first constitutive equation with memory • Deformation to low strains •Can match SAOS, step-strain data very well •Captures start-up/cessation effects (linear regime) •Simple to calculate with •Can be used to calculate the LVE spectrum
•Fails to predict shear normal stresses CON: The GLVE does not work for the •Fails to predict shear-thinning/thickening nonlinear regime, due to the problem •Only valid at small strains, small rates of lack of frame invariance. GLVE: •Not frame-invariant

Fluids with Memory – Chapter 8 Strain-related issues? Shear flow in a rotating frame of reference
y fluid ⇒ perhaps the problem with the GLVE x
model is associated with how strain is x, y, z
mathematically described.
GLVE:
x, y, z The question then becomes, how is strain mathematically described in the GLVE Model?
