A reflected diffusion process is proposed for modeling of viscoelastic fluids. In order to define the viscoelastic stress tensor, the reflected diffusion process is approximated by Ito diffusions with a penalization factor in the drift term. Convergence of ...
Mathematical and numerical aspects of viscoelastic flows are investigated here. Two simplified mathematical models are considered. They are motivated by a splitting algorithm for solving viscoelastic flows with free surfaces. The first model is a simplifie ...
