Long-Time Asymptotics of a Multiscale Model for Polymeric Fluid Flows

In this paper, we investigate the long-time behavior of some micro-macro models for polymeric fluids (Hookean model and FENE model), in various settings (shear flow, general bounded domain with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions on the velocity, general bounded domain with non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions on the velocity). We use both probabilistic approaches (coupling methods) and analytic approaches (entropy methods).
