Numerical Methods for Viscoelastic Fluid Flows (2021, background): “In a multimode model, the polymer stress is given as the sum of N modes, where the stress from each mode k follows an expression like Equation 5, thus defining spectra of coefficients Other rheological equations of differential type that describe different types of polymer melts are the Pom-Pom (McL”
