Detailed Hot End Analysis

Whaddup ballers,

Was wondering if any of you know of somewhere I can go to read about the detailed analysis of what is happening inside of the hot end. I'm looking to do an analysis of this process (specifically what happens during the liquid phase) of extrusion for a class I'm in right now. I haven't been able to find much about this topic thus far. Any references with scientific articles or things of that nature would be greatly appreciated.

Read this first: Rheology on nophead's blog

This journal article might be useful, but it is behind a paywall - maybe you have access through a library: Leakage-proof nozzle design for RepRap community 3D printer by Klodowski, Eskelinen, and Semken
