Probing shear-banding transitions of the VCM model for entangled wormlike micellar solutions using large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) deformations

▶ Probe shear-banding dynamics of models under LAOS (Large Amplitude Oscillatory Shear). ▶ LAOS predictions of a two-species model of entangled wormlike micellar mixtures. ▶ Assemble responses of shear-banded wormlike micelles to LAOS in Pipkin diagram. ▶ Lissajous phase planes for the VCM (Vasquez, Cook, McKinley) two-species models. ▶ Comparison of elastic/viscous Chebyshev coefficient response for a VCM model.
