#+TITLE: *FENE-P viscoelastic constitutive model README file for version 3.2*
#+AUTHOR: Jovani
#+DATE: 05 October 2010
* This is a simulation case for a viscoelastic fluid described by the Finitely
Extensible Nonlinear Elastic-Peterlin constitutive model (FENE-P).
The geometry was the 4:1 plane contraction. This is a well studied
geometry in viscoelastic fluid flow research.

about the geometry, can be found at:
