13. Simple shear flow contains equal parts pure elongation (directed along (Formula presented) at a rate of (Formula presented)) and pure rotation (about (Formula presented) at a rate of (Formula presented)). For a droplet with nearly spherical symmetry, the effective internal rate of strain is thus approximately half the applied shear rate. Although the domains encountered here are not spherical, the ensemble-averaged aspect ratio is not far removed from unity, and we adopt this convention as a first approximation.
