Investigation of variable thermo-physical properties of viscoelastic rheology: A Galerkin finite element approach

Galerkin finite element (GFEM) algorithm is implemented to investigate the variable viscosity, variable thermal conductivity and variable mass diffusion coefficient on viscoelasticity and non-Newtonian rheology of Maxwell fluid. Computer code is developed for weak form of FEM equations and validated...
