Fluid Mechanics of Viscoplasticity

Raja R. Huilgol is Emeritus Professor of Mathematics at Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia. He is the author of a book and the co-author of another one on the fluid mechanics of viscoelastic fluids, and the author of a book on viscoplastic fluids. Apart from fluid mechanics, his research interests are spread across several disciplines, such as injection molding, stability of trains, modeling photosynthesis, and granular flows.Georgios C. Georgiou is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Cyprus, Cyprus. He is Co-author of a fluid mechanics book. His research interests cover computational rheology, non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, and computational fluid mechanics.
