Abstract: In this lecture, we consider the governing modeling system, which we developed recently, for the viscoelastic fiber jets subjected to the Giesekus constitutive equations for the stress tensor. We calculate the corresponding nonlinear solutions for several quantities such as jet speed, jet diameter, tensile force and stretching rate etc. versus different values of the arc length and parameters that can represent effects due to rotation, surface tension and viscoelasticity. We present application of such results for production of nanofibers from different materials with important technological applications
