    Notes: Abstract The paper is concerned with the flow of a dilute suspension of monosized spheroids past a sphere placed at the centerline of a cylindrical tube. The suspension is modeled by the transversely isotropic fluid model and the numerical solution is obtained by a time-dependent boundary element method. No steady-state solution to the problem was found. However, the amplitude of the long-time oscillations in the drag force on the sphere is only about 1% of its mean value at a solid volume concentration of 0.01 and an aspect ratio of 10 for the spheroids. The initial orientation of the microstructure has a small effect on the drag force: it can give rise to a ±1 % variation in the drag force at large time.

    Notes: Abstract We briefly review the phenomenological theory of rubber-like elasticity and report a microstructural model that leads us to eventually adopt a particular constitutive equation, which includes the Neo-Hookean and the Mooney materials. A numerical implementation of the Boundary Element method for solving a general two-dimensional or axisymmetric finite deformation problem is described and tested with some simple deformations. The resulting program is used to analyse the finite deformation of a circular elastic slice perfectly bonded to two parallel rigid end plates; the bottom plate is stationary and the top plate is given a constant displacement. The problem has a free surface which must be found as part of the solution. The results indicate that the Boundary Element method can be an efficient tool for stress-strain analyses with rubber-like materials.
