4.14.2.4 Powell-Eyring Model

The material type for a Powell-Eyring model [22] is “Powell-Eyring”. The following material parameters must be defined:
<mu0> shear viscosity at zero shear rate, [P t]
<mui> shear viscosity at infinite shear rate, [P t]
<lambda> time constant [t]
The viscous shear stress for this material model is where Here, is the engineering shear rate.
Example:
<viscous type="Powell-Eyring">
	<mu0>0.056</mu0>
	<mui>0.0035</mui>
	<lambda>5.4</lambda>
</viscous>
