THE DEVELOPMENT OF NON-NEWTONIAN FLUID MECHANICS IN CHINA

At the 1978 National Planning Conference on Mechanics it was agreed that non-Newtoninn fluid mechanics is an area that needed to be developed and deserved support. Since then special courses have been held in various parts of the country and at various times. The number of papers on non-Newtonian fluid mechanics presented at various national and international conferences has significantly increased. In the present article we have briefly described the work of some of our colleagues in the following areas; (a) constitutive equations, continuum and molecular approaches, (b) rheometry, (c) stability of various flows, (d) slip at the walls, (e) spin coating, (f) lubrication, (g) converging flows, (h) polymer processing, spinning and injection moulding, (i) petroleum industries, drilling and flow through porous media, (j) bio-fluidmechanics. Most of the work described above was presented at the First National Congress on Rheology held in November 1985 in Changsha, Hunan province.
