Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

While we now have a relatively good understanding of low-Reynolds-number hydrodynamics, and elegant techniques to dissect it, one cannot truly say the same for yield-stress fluids. For these materials, the nonlinearity associated with the yield stress complicates analysis and prevents the use of many of the techniques used for slow viscous flow. Simultaneously, the presence of a yield stress introduces a range of new features into the problem beyond those of traditional Stokes flow. Accordingly, in this essay, we discuss the impact of a yield stress in the relatively simple setting of two-dimensional, steady, inertialess flow. The main goals are to establish intuition for the dramatically different features that can be introduced to the flow by the yield stress, and to outline the various tools available to the modeller to construct and interpret these flows.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
