Stress relaxation in a dilute bacterial suspension: The active-passive transition
Sankalp Nambiar, Phanikanth S, Nott P. R. +1
We analyse the time dependent non-linear rheology of a dilute bacterial suspension (e.g. E. coli) for a pair of impulsively started linear flows - simple shear and uniaxial extensi…

Concentration banding instability of a sheared bacterial suspension
Laxminarsimharao V, Piyush Garg, Ganesh Subramanian
We demonstrate a novel shear-induced mechanism for growth of concentration fluctuations in a bacterial suspension. Using a linear stability analysis, a homogeneously sheared suspen…
