Reciprocal swimming in viscoelastic granular hydrogels

Hongyi Xiao, Jing Wang, Achim Sack +2

We experimentally study a scallop-like swimmer with reciprocally flapping wings in a nearly frictionless, cohesive granular medium consisting of hydrogel spheres. Significant locom…

Force on a sphere suspended in flowing granulate

Jing Wang, Bo Fan, Tivadar Pongó +3

We investigate the force of flowing granular material on an obstacle. A sphere suspended in a discharging silo experiences both the weight of the overlaying layers and drag of the…

Pressure sensitivity in non-local flow behaviour of dense hydrogel particle suspensions

Zohreh Farmani, Nazanin Ghods, Harkirat Singh +5

Slowly sheared particulate media like sand and suspensions flow heterogeneously as they yield via shear bands, in which most strain accumulates. Understanding shear band localizati…

The effect of obstacles near a silo outlet on the discharge of soft spheres

Jing Wang, Kirsten Harth, Dmitry Puzyrev +1

Soft smooth particles in silo discharge show peculiar characteristics, including, for example, non-permanent clogging and intermittent flow. This paper describes a study of soft, l…

Magnetic Resonance Imaging study of sheared granular matter

Jing Wang, Zohreh Farmani, Joshua Dijksman +3

We introduce a Magnetic Resonance Imaging technique to study the geometry of shear zones of soft, low-frictional and hard, frictional granular materials and their mixtures. Hydroge…

Silo discharge of mixtures of soft and rigid grains

Jing Wang, Bo Fan, Tivadar Pongó +6

We study the outflow dynamics and clogging phenomena of mixtures of soft, elastic low-friction spherical grains and hard frictional spheres of similar size in a quasi-two-dimension…

Intermittent flow and transient congestions of soft spheres passing narrow orifices

Kirsten Harth, Jing Wang, Tamás Börzsönyi +1

Soft, low-friction particles in silos show peculiar features during their discharge. The outflow velocity and the clogging probability both depend upon the momentary silo fill heig…
