Investigating the Nature of Discontinuous Shear Thickening: Beyond a Mean-Field Description
Jetin E. Thomas, Abhay Goyal, Deshpreet Singh Bedi +3
Dense suspensions can undergo a dramatic increase in viscosity at a critical value of the shear stress. This phenomenon, termed discontinuous shear thickening (DST), has been attri…
Disentangling microstructural elements of shear thickening suspensions via computer simulations of a minimal model
William C. J. Buchholtz, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach +2
We use a minimal model for a dense suspension undergoing thickening and thinning to investigate microstructural changes in 2d simulations. Our simulations show that in steady flow…
Droplet growth, Ostwald's rule, and emergence of order in Fused in Sarcoma
Farkhad Maksudov, Mauro L. Mugnai, Laura Dominguez +2
The low complexity domain of Fused in Sarcoma (FUS-LC consisting of 214 residues) undergoes phase separation, resulting in a dense liquid-like phase that forms early and slowly mat…
Elastic turbulence in highly entangled polymers and wormlike micelles
Theo A. Lewy, Suzanne M. Fielding, Peter D. Olmsted +1
We show theoretically that an initially homogeneous planar Couette flow of a concentrated polymeric fluid is linearly unstable to the growth of two-dimensional (2D) perturbations,…
A fast transferable method for predicting the glass transition temperature of polymers from chemical structure
Sebastian Brierley-Croft, Peter D. Olmsted, Peter J. Hine +4
We present a new method that successfully predicts the glass transition temperature of polymers based on their monomer structure. The model combines ideas from…
Entanglement kinetics in polymer melts are chemically specific
Benjamin E. Dolata, Marco A Galvani Cunha, Thomas O'Connor +2
We investigate the universality of entanglement kinetics in polymer melts. We compare predictions of a recently developed constitutive equation for disentanglement to molecular dyn…
