“…The displacement of immiscible Newtonian liquids, such as oils, by water jets has been investigated previously [12,13]. The removal of non-Newtonian soils show more complex behaviour and has been investigated for shear thinning [14], viscoelastic [15,16] and viscoplastic [1,17] layers. Cleaning viscoplastic materials that are insoluble in the cleaning solution is particularly challenging.…”
