Emergence and persistence of flow inhomogeneities in the yielding and fluidization of dense soft solids
Vishwas V. Vasisht, Gabrielle Roberts, Emanuela Del Gado
The response to shear of the dense soft solids features a stress overshoot and a persistent shear banding before reaching a homogeneously flowing state. In 3D large scale simulatio…
