β¦ Synopsis
A viscoelastic analysis is presented for model tube tooling, draw-down and combined geometry flows encountered in the cable coating industries. The work investigates the development of stress fields and studies the effect of varying entry flow stress boundary conditions. The analysis takes into account tube tooling and draw-down flow sections individually, and in combination. The flow behaviour of cable-coating grade low density polyethylene is studied assuming a viscoelastic, isothermal flow, and employing a Taylor-Petrov-Galerkin finite element scheme with an exponential Phan-Thien -Tanner constitutive model.

## Abstract A simple computational method, based on the simplex algorithm of linear programming, is proposed for the following problem: βConsider a network (e.g., rail, road, communication network) connecting two given points by way of a number of intermediate points, where each link of the networ
## Abstract There is a growing interest in developing numerical tools to investigate the onset of physical instabilities observed in experiments involving viscoelastic flows, which is a difficult and challenging task as the simulations are very sensitive to numerical instabilities. Following a rece
