Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics

期刊简介：The Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics publishes research on flowing soft matter systems. Submissions in all areas of flowing complex fluids are welcomed, including polymer melts and solutions, suspensions, colloids, surfactant solutions, biological fluids, gels, liquid crystals and granular materials. Flow problems relevant to microfluidics, lab-on-a-chip, nanofluidics, biological flows, geophysical flows, industrial processes and other applications are of interest.Subjects considered suitable for the journal include the following (not necessarily in order of importance):Theoretical, computational and experimental studies of naturally or technologically relevant flow problems where the non-Newtonian nature of the fluid is important in determining the character of the flow. We seek in particular studies that lend mechanistic insight into flow behavior in complex fluids or highlight flow phenomena unique to complex fluids. Examples includeInstabilities, unsteady and turbulent or chaotic flow characteristics in non-Newtonian fluids,Multiphase flows involving complex fluids,Problems involving transport phenomena such as heat and mass transfer and mixing, to the extent that the non-Newtonian flow behavior is central to the transport phenomena,Novel flow situations that suggest the need for further theoretical study,Practical situations of flow that are in need of systematic theoretical and experimental research. Such issues and developments commonly arise, for example, in the polymer processing, petroleum, pharmaceutical, biomedical and consumer product industries.

【译文】该期刊发表关于流动软物质系统的研究。欢迎所有关于流动复杂流体的投稿，包括聚合物熔体和溶液、悬浮液、胶体、表面活性剂溶液、生物流体、凝胶、液晶和颗粒材料。与微流控、芯片实验室、纳米流控、生物流动、地球物理流动、工业过程和其他应用相关的流动问题也很有兴趣。考虑适合该期刊的主题包括以下内容（不一定按重要性排序）：与自然或技术相关的流动问题的理论、计算和实验研究，其中流体的非牛顿性质在确定流动特性方面很重要。我们特别寻求那些为复杂流体中的流动行为提供机制洞察或突出复杂流体独特流动现象的研究。例如包括非牛顿流体中的不稳定性、非稳态和湍流或混沌流动特性、涉及复杂流体的多相流动、涉及传热和传质以及混合等传质现象的问题，在非牛顿流动行为是传质现象的核心时，需要进一步理论研究的新的流动情况，以及需要系统理论和实验研究的实际流动情况。这些问题和发展通常出现在聚合物加工、石油、制药、生物医学和消费品等行业。
