Abstract
Dynamic response of microemulsions to shear deformation on the basis of two-order-parameter time dependent Ginzburg-Landau
model is investigated by means of cell dynamical system approach. Time evolution of anisotropic factor and excess shear stress
under steady shear flow is studied by changing shear rate and total amount of surfactant. As the surfactant concentration
is increased, overshoot peak height of the anisotropic factor increases whereas that of the excess shear stress is almost
unchanged.
