Now suppose we are dealing with a Non-Newtonian material such as baking dough, say. We must specify a constitutive relation for this material; note that the following expression has a nonlinear term: σij =2μeij +α(eij eij ) a. Calculate the components of σij for baking dough undergoing this simple shearing motion. b. Determine the components of the traction vector t on the top plate (where t =σ. n and represents the force per unit area exerted by the plate on the baking dough. Note that we are ignoring the static contribution in the last expression.) c. Note that a flow as sketched in Fig. 2 below can be closely approximated by a Couette flow. Therefore, use the results of part b to explain why baking dough tends to rise up the shaft of a mixer. d. Would your explanation still hold if baking dough were a

a. Calculate the components of σij for baking dough undergoing this simple shearing motion.
b. Determine the components of the traction
c. Note that a flow as sketched in Fig. 2 below can be closely approximated by a Couette flow. Therefore, use the results of part b to explain why baking dough tends to rise up the shaft of a mixer.
d. Would your explanation still hold if baking dough were a Newtonian material?
