Topological versus rheological entanglement length in primitive path analysis protocols

Ralf Everaers

Primitive path analysis algorithms are now routinely employed to analyze entanglements in computer simulations of polymeric systems, but different analysis protocols result in diff…

Spontaneous formation of permanent shear bands in a mesoscopic model of flowing disordered matter

Kirsten Martens, Lydéric Bocquet, Jean-Louis Barrat

This study proposes a coherent scenario of the formation of permanent shear bands in the flow of yield stress materials. It is a well accepted point of view that flow in disordered…

Yielding dynamics of a Herschel-Bulkley fluid: a critical-like fluidization behaviour

Thibaut Divoux, David Tamarii, Catherine Barentin +2

The shear-induced fluidization of a carbopol microgel is investigated during long start-up experiments using combined rheology and velocimetry in Couette cells of varying gap width…

Lift and drag forces on an inclined plow moving over a granular surface

Baptiste Percier, Sebastien Manneville, Jim N. McElwaine +2

We studied the drag and lift forces acting on an inclined plate while it is dragged on the surface of a granular media, both in experiment and numerical simulation. In particular,…

Stress overshoot in a simple yield stress fluid: an extensive study combining rheology and velocimetry

Thibaut Divoux, Catherine Barentin, Sebastien Manneville

We report a large amount of experimental data on the stress overshoot phenomenon which takes place during start-up shear flows in a simple yield stress fluid, namely a carbopol mic…
