Granular Response to Impact: Topology of the Force Networks

T. Tadanaga, Abram H. Clark, T. Majmudar +1

Impact of an intruder on granular matter leads to formation of mesoscopic force networks seen particularly clearly in the recent experiments carried out with photoelastic particles…

Nonlinear Dynamics of Coiling in Viscoelastic Jets

Trushant Majmudar, Matthieu Varagnat, William Hartt +1

Instabilities in free surface continuous jets of non-Newtonian fluids, although relevant for many industrial processes, remain less well understood in terms of fundamental fluid dy…

The folding motion of an axisymmetric jet of wormlike-micelles solution

Matthieu Varagnat, Trushant Majmudar, William Hartt +1

The problem of buckling and coiling of jets of viscous, Newtonian liquids has received a substantial level of attention over the past two decades, both from experimental and theore…

Locomotion of C. elegans in Structured Environments

Trushant S. Majmudar, Eric Keaveny, Mike Shelley +1

Undulatory locomotion of microorganisms like soil-dwelling worms and spermatozoa, in structured environments, is ubiquitous in nature. They navigate complex environments consisting…

Statistical Properties of a 2D Granular Material Subjected to Cyclic Shear

J. Zhang, T. S. Majmudar, A. Tordesillas +1

This work focuses on the evolution of structure and stress for an experimental system of 2D photoelastic particles that is subjected to multiple cycles of pure shear. Throughout th…

Entropic origin of stress correlations in granular materials

Gregg Lois, Jie Zhang, Trushant S. Majmudar +4

We study the response of granular materials to external stress using experiment, simulation, and theory. We derive an entropic, Ginzburg-Landau functional that enforces mechanical…
