Order and Information in the Patterns of Spinning Magnetic Micro-disks at the Air-water Interface
Wendong Wang, Gaurav Gardi, Paolo Malgaretti +9
The application of the Shannon entropy to study the relationship between information and structures has yielded insights into molecular and material systems. However, the difficult…
Evolution of fragment size distributions from the crushing of granular materials
Pavel S. Iliev, Falk K. Wittel, Hans J. Herrmann
We study the fragment size distributions after crushing of single and many particles under uniaxial compression inside a cylindrical container by means of numerical simulations. Un…
A Boundary-Spheropolygon Element Method for Stress Determination and Breakage Modelling of Particles
Yupeng Jiang, Hans J. Herrmann, Fernando Alonso-Marroquin
We present a boundary-spheropolygon element method (BSEM), that combines the boundary integral method (BIM) and the spheropolygon-based discrete element method (SEM). The interacti…
Self-assembly and rheology of dipolar colloids in simple shear - studied by multi-particle collision dynamics
Dmitry Zablotsky, Elmars Blums, Hans J. Herrmann
Magnetic nanoparticles in a colloidal solution self-assemble in various aligned structures, which has a profound influence on the flow behavior. However, the precise role of the mi…
On measuring the acoustic state changes in lipid membranes using fluorescent probes
Shamit Shrivastava, Robin O. Cleveland, Matthias F. Schneider
Ultrasound is increasingly being used to modulate the properties of biological membranes for applications in drug delivery and neuromodulation. While various studies have investiga…
Anisotropic de Gennes narrowing in confined fluids
Kim Nygard, Johan Buitenhuis, Matias Kagias +3
The collective diffusion of dense fluids in spatial confinement was studied by combining high-energy (21 keV) x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy and small-angle x-ray scattering…
