As an introduction to the workshop I will describe some basic old and new results about the Euler equation for incompressible inviscid fluids. I will focus one what can be learned from the example of the shear flow in 2d and 3d and one what are the consequences of the recent breakthroughs made first by Sheffer Shnirleman and then by De Lellis an...

The viscoelasticity of a wormlike micellar fluid derives from the presence at the microscale of long tubelike surfactant aggregations (micelles), which occur at low concentrations due to the presence of an organic salt/cosurfactant. Without this salt the micelles are spherical, and the fluid is completely Newtonian. I will present recent experim...
