Rupture dynamics of flat colloidal films
Phalguni Shah, Eleanor Ward, Srishti Arora +1
Here, we report experimental results on the rupture of flat colloidal films over a large range of volume fractions, 0.00 0.47. The films are formed using a constant flui…
A simple catch: thermal fluctuations enable hydrodynamic trapping of microrollers by obstacles
Ernest B. van der Wee, Brendan C. Blackwell, Florencio Balboa Usabiaga +4
It is known that obstacles can hydrodynamically trap bacteria and synthetic microswimmers in orbits, where the trapping time heavily depends on the swimmer flow field and noise is…
Coexistence of solid and liquid phases in shear jammed colloidal drops
Phalguni Shah, Srishti Arora, Michelle M. Driscoll
Complex fluids exhibit a variety of exotic flow behaviours under high stresses, such as shear thickening and shear jamming. Rheology is a powerful tool to characterise these flow b…
Heterogeneity-stabilized homogeneous states in driven media
Zachary G. Nicolaou, Daniel J. Case, Ernest B. van der Wee +2
Understanding the relationship between symmetry breaking, system properties, and instabilities has been a problem of longstanding scientific interest. Symmetry-breaking instabiliti…
Drop Impact Dynamics of Complex Fluids: A Review
Phalguni Shah, Michelle M. Driscoll
The impact of fluid drops on solid substrates has widespread interest in many industrial coating and spraying applications, such as ink-jet printing and agricultural pesticide spra…
Sedimentation of a Colloidal Monolayer Down an Inclined Plane
Brennan Sprinkle, Sam Wilken, Shake Karapetyan +7
We study the driven collective dynamics of a colloidal monolayer sedimentating down an inclined plane. The action of the gravity force parallel to the bottom wall creates a flow ar…
