Microscopic Picture of Cooperative Processes in Restructuring Gel Networks
Jader Colombo, Asaph Widmer-Cooper, Emanuela Del Gado
Colloidal gel networks are disordered elastic solids that can form even in extremely dilute particle suspensions. With interaction strengths comparable to the thermal energy, their…

Stress localization, stiffening and yielding in a model colloidal gel
Jader Colombo, Emanuela Del Gado
We use numerical simulations and an athermal quasi-static shear protocol to investigate the yielding of a model colloidal gel. Under increasing deformation, the elastic regime is f…

Self-assembly and cooperative dynamics of a model colloidal gel network
Jader Colombo, Emanuela Del Gado
We study the assembly into a gel network of colloidal particles, via effective interactions that yield local rigidity and make dilute network structures mechanically stable. The se…
