Detailed Description

template<typename T, template< typename U > class Descriptor, int N>
class plb::CarreauDynamics< T, Descriptor, N >

This class recomputes omega for a generalied newtonian fluid with a carreau constitutive equation.

The constitutive equation is nu=nu0*(1+(lambda*|gamma|)^2)^((n-1)/2). Note that in order to be numerically efficient there is no resolution of the implicit equation rather we try to get to the fixed point by auto-replacement in the solution.(??? need to be rewritten)

(

)

const [inline, virtual]

Clone the object, based on its dynamic type.

Implements plb::CompositeDynamics< T, Descriptor >.
