Tuning the Mechanical Properties in Model Nanocomposites: Influence of the Polymer-Filler Interfacial Interactions

Chloé Chevigny, Nicolas Jouault, Florent Dalmas +2

This paper presents a study of the polymer-filler interfacial effects on filler dispersion and mechanical reinforcement in Polystyrene (PS) / silica nanocomposites by direct compar…

Creep and fluidity of a real granular packing near jamming

Van Bau Nguyen, Thierry Darnige, Ary Bruand +1

We study the internal dynamical processes taking place in a granular packing below yield stress. At all packing fractions and down to vanishingly low applied shear, a logarithmic c…

Cell motility: a viscous fingering analysis of active gels

M. Ben Amar, O. V. Manyuhina, G. Napoli

The symmetry breaking of the actin network from radial to longitudinal symmetry has been identified as the major mechanism for keratocytes (fish cells) motility on solid substrate.…

Forces exerted by a correlated fluid on embedded inclusions

Anne-Florence Bitbol, Jean-Baptiste Fournier

We investigate the forces exerted on embedded inclusions by a fluid medium with long-range correlations, described by an effective scalar field theory. Such forces are the basis fo…

Superstructures par agrégation contrôlée de nanocolloïdes: caractérisation structurale par diffusion de neutrons aux petits angles et simulation numérique

Jean-Francois Berret, Julian Oberdisse

The complexation of micelles or charged nanoparticles with neutral-charged block copolymers in aqueous solutions leads to the formation of colloidal superstructures also termed 'co…
