We present numerical simulations based on a Boltzmann kinetic model with competing interactions, aimed at characterizing the rheological properties of soft-glassy materials. The lattice kinetic model is shown to reproduce typical signatures of driven soft-glassy flows in confined geometries, such as Herschel–Bulkley rheology, shear banding and hysteresis. This lends further credit to the present lattice kinetic model as a valuable tool for the theoretical/computational investigation of the rheology of driven soft-glassy materials under confinement.

Abstract
We present numerical simulations based on a Boltzmann kinetic model with competing interactions, aimed at characterizing the rheological properties of soft-glassy materials. The lattice kinetic model is shown to reproduce typical signatures of driven soft-glassy flows in confined geometries, such as Herschel–Bulkley rheology, shear banding and hysteresis. This lends further credit to the present lattice kinetic model as a valuable tool for the theoretical/computational investigation of the rheology of driven soft-glassy materials under confinement.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
