TY - JOUR T1 - Viscoelastic rate type fluids with temperature dependent material parameters – stability of the rest state A1 - Stein, Judith A1 - Průša, Vít JA - AIP Conf. Proc. Y1 - 2017 VL - 1843 SP - 020004 M2 - doi: 10.1063/1.4982979 KW - stability KW - viscoelastic fluids N2 - We study the dynamics of small perturbations to the rest state of a viscoelastic rate type fluid with temperature dependent material parameters. We show that if the material parameters are chosen appropriately, then the quiescent state of the fluid filling an isolated (mechanically, thermally) vessel is a stable state. The outlined analysis explicitly documents the importance of thermodynamic analysis in the development of advanced models for complex fluids.
