A Study of Transport of Micellar Fluids in Porous Media
… have also been measured for three-phase micellar fluids as a function of capillary number in a Berea core. Continuous and slug displacements of both partitioning and non-partitioning radioactive tracers were run for each steady-state experiment. The experimental effluent tracer data from …

Flow-Induced Self Assembly in Micellar Fluids with Applications to Nanomanufacturing
… which are qualitatively different from simple micellar aggregates. It is shown that the shear-thickening transition occurs when a critical amount of strain is applied on a solution that is sheared beyond a critical shear rate. We provide robust scaling laws for the onset of shear thickening, …

Role of viscoelasticity and non-linear rheology in flows of complex fluids at high deformation rates
… plays a dominant role: 1) shear banding in micellar fluids, 2) extension-dominated flows in microfluidic devices, and 3) flow-induced particle migration in microchannels. Firstly, worm-like micellar solutions are model non-Newtonian fluids having a single relaxation time [beta]. At shear …

STRUCTURE, DYNAMICS AND RHEOLOGY OF SURFACTANT MICELLES AND MICELLE-NANOPARTICLE SOLUTIONS: A MOLECULAR DYNAMICS STUDY
… Understanding flow-microstructure coupling in micellar systems can benefit applications ranging from targeted drug delivery and detergency to enhanced oil recovery and hydrofracking. Amongst micellar fluids, wormlike micelles (WLMs) are extremely interesting due to their structural similarity …
