OpenFOAM has the ability to deal with complex materials, whose behavior is referred as non-Newtonian, which can be both inelastic (Generalized Newtonian) and viscoleastic. Below you can find the list of tutorials that cover modelling of complex materials.

Complex materials
New constitutive models
- This tutorial by Gavin Tabor shows how to implement and use a new constitutive equation (the Casson model) adequate to capture the behavior of chocolate and blood.
Further reading
- Håkan Nilsson's collection [1] comprises some reports that cover Complex Materials related topics.
