Abstract: An analysis is made of the motion of a contact lens normal to the eye through a tear film. The eye is modeled as a rigid sphere and the lens as a deformable spherical cap. Graphs of ...

Abstract: We employ a kinetic constitutive theory that includes the effects of particle transport and collisions to analyze steady, fully developed, gravity-driven flows of smooth, inelastic spheres down ...

Abstract: We employ balance laws and constitutive relations for rapid, dense, plane flows of identical circular disks together with boundary conditions at a bumpy wall to analyse steady shearing flows ...
