Summary

The simplest case of structured fluid theory is shown to correspond to a type of Maxwell fluid which exhibits normal stress differences. A nonlinear problem related to the deformation of suspended liquid drops as induced by inertial effects is solved and the influence of structured fluid parameters investigated.

Zusammenfassung

Es wird gezeigt, daß der einfachste Fall einer strukturierten Flüssigkeit einer Art Maxwellscher Flüssigkeit entspricht, welche Differenzen im Betrag der Normalspannungen aufweist. Ein nichtlineares Problem, welches mit der durch Trägheit verursachten Deformation eines Tropfens zusammenhängt, wird gelöst. Der Einfluß der Parameter der strukturierten Flüssigkeit wird untersucht.
