Structure of propagating high stress fronts in a shear thickening suspension

Vikram Rathee, Joia M. Miller, Daniel L. Blair +1

We report direct measurements of spatially resolved stress at the boundary of a shear thickening cornstarch suspension revealing persistent regions of high local stress propagating…

A fast and efficient tool to study the rheology of dense suspensions

Alessandro Monti, Vikram Rathee, Amy Q. Shen +1

A cutting-edge software is presented to tackle the Newton-Euler equations governing the dynamics of granular flows and dense suspensions in Newtonian fluids. In particular, we prop…

Dynamics and memory of boundary stresses in discontinuous shear thickening suspensions during oscillatory shear

Vikram Rathee, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach

We report direct measurements of spatially resolved surface stresses of a dense suspension during large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) in the discontinuous shear thickening reg…

Shear-induced ordering of nano-pores and instabilities in concentrated surfactant mesh phases

Pradip K. Bera, Vikram Rathee, Rema Krishnaswamy +1

Mixed surfactant systems with strongly bound counterions show many interesting phases such as the random mesh phase consisting of a disordered array of defects (water-filled nano-p…

Localized Transient Jamming in Discontinuous Shear Thickening

Vikram Rathee, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach

We report direct measurements of spatially resolved surface stresses over the entire surface of a dense suspension during discontinuous shear thickening (DST) using Boundary Stress…

Unraveling the Role of Frictional Contacts and Particle Orientational Order During Shear-thickening in Suspensions of Colloidal Rods

Vikram Rathee, Srishti Arora, Daniel L. Blair +3

There is now convincing evidence that inter-particle frictional contacts are essential for observing shear-thickening in concentrated suspensions of compact particles. While this h…
