J. Casasvazquez et al., DYNAMICAL AND THERMODYNAMICAL APPROACHES TO PHASE-SEPARATION IN POLYMER-SOLUTIONS UNDER FLOW, Europhysics letters, 23(7), 1993, pp. 469-474
The conditions under which dynamical and thermodynamical approaches to
the analysis of phase separation in polymer solutions under flow yiel
d the same criteria for the spinodal line are explored when a generali
zed free energy dependent on the shear rate is used.
