Direct fibre simulation of carbon nanofibres suspensions in a newtonian fluid under simple shear

This work studies the effect of simple shear flows on the dispersion of carbon nanofibres (CNF) in a low viscosity Newtonian matrix. Analysis was performed by using a direct fibre simulation based on Particle Simulation Method (PSM) especially focusing on structure changes under shear flows. Suspens...
