Experiments show that in the final stages of break-up (when the filament diameter is approximately five times that of the suspended particles) the thinning no longer follows the behaviour predicted by the bulk viscosity; instead thinning is accelerated due to the effects of finite particle size. A simple onedimensional model is described in which the viscosity is determined from the local particle density, found by tracking individual particles within the suspension. Despite its simplicity this model is able to reproduce quantitively the thinning behaviour observed in experiments. 000014675 540__ $$aText je chráněný podle autorského zákona č. 121/2000 Sb. 000014675 653__ $$a 000014675 7112_ $$a24th International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics$$cMontreal (CA)$$d2016-08-21 / 2016-08-26$$gICTAM2016 000014675 720__ $$aHarlen, Oliver 000014675 8560_ $$ffischerc@itam.cas.cz 000014675 8564_ $$s87826$$uhttps://invenio.itam.cas.cz/record/14675/files/TS.FM12-1.04.pdf$$yOriginal version of the author's contribution as presented on CD, page 1258, code TS.FM12-1.04 . 000014675 962__ $$r13812 000014675 980__ $$aPAPER
