ems is on a distinguished road
I am trying to model a non-newtonian fluid (blood) that depends on shear rate. I used the equation:

0.026314*pow($StrainRate,(0.47234-1)) + 3.117316

but I get an error that $StrainRate is not recognized. Is this not the correct term for strain rate, or am I using it incorrectly? I haven't been able to find the correct usage in the help or anywhere else. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Eric
