Figure 8.
The image depicts a two-panel graph. The left panel shows Drag Coefficient C d versus Time in seconds on a logarithmic scale from 10 to the power negative 3 to 10 to the power 3. The right panel shows Lift Coefficient C l versus Time in seconds on a logarithmic scale from 10 to the power negative 6 to 10 to the power 1. Curves compare Newtonian, Non-Newtonian Type 1, and Non-Newtonian Type 2 models, illustrating rapid growth followed by stabilisation of both drag and lift over 8 seconds.Comparison of drag and lift coefficients for Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids (Type 1 and Type 2) in the cylinder flow configuration in the low Reynolds number regime (). Type 1 converges to higher steady-state values due to shear-thickening, whereas Type 2 shows an initial amplification followed by viscosity relaxation, eventually stabilizing at values similar to the Newtonian case
