Universal velocity distributions in an experimental granular fluid

Pedro M. Reis, Rohit A. Ingale, Mark D. Shattuck

We present experimental results on the velocity statistics of a uniformly heated granular fluid, in a quasi-2D configuration. We find the base state, as measured by the single part…

Shear flow pumping in open microfluidic systems

Markus Rauscher, S. Dietrich, Joel Koplik

We propose to drive open microfluidic systems by shear in a covering fluid layer, e.g., oil covering water-filled chemical channels. The advantages as compared to other means of pu…

Caging dynamics in a granular fluid

Pedro M. Reis, Rohit A. Ingale, Mark D. Shattuck

We report an experimental investigation of the caging motion in a uniformly heated granular fluid, for a wide range of filling fractions, . At low the classic diffusive beha…

Dynamic particle tracking reveals the aging temperature of a colloidal glass

Ping Wang, Chaoming Song, Hernan A. Makse

Understanding glasses is considered to be one of the most fundamental problems in statistical physics. A theoretical approach to unravel their universal properties is to consider t…

Dynamic effective mass of granular media

Chaur-Jian Hsu, David L. Johnson, Rohit A. Ingale +3

We develop the concept of frequency dependent effective mass, M(omega), of jammed granular materials which occupy a rigid cavity to a filling fraction of 48%, the remaining volume…

Nanoscale fluid flows in the vicinity of patterned surfaces

Marek Cieplak, Joel Koplik, Jayanth R. Banavar

Molecular dynamics simulations of dense and rarefied fluids comprising small chain molecules in chemically patterned nano-channels predict a novel switching from Poiseuille to plug…

Crystallization of a quasi-two-dimensional granular fluid

Pedro M. Reis, Rohit A. Ingale, Mark D. Shattuck

We experimentally investigate the crystallization of a uniformly heated quasi-2D granular fluid as a function of filling fraction. Our experimental results for the Lindemann meltin…
