Rheofluidics: frequency-dependent rheology of single drops

Matteo Milani, Wenyun Wang, Lorenzo Russotto +4

We present Rheofluidics, a microfluidic technique that measures the frequency-dependent rheology of individual micron-scale objects. We apply oscillatory hydrodynamic stresses by f…

Ductile-to-brittle transition and yielding in soft amorphous materials: perspectives and open questions

Thibaut Divoux, Elisabeth Agoritsas, Stefano Aime +37

Soft amorphous materials are viscoelastic solids ubiquitously found around us, from clays and cementitious pastes to emulsions and physical gels encountered in food or biomedical e…

Anomalous crystalline ordering of particles in a viscoelastic fluid under high shear

Sijie Sun, Nan Xue, Stefano Aime +5

Addition of particles to a viscoelastic suspension dramatically alters the properties of the mixture, particularly when it is sheared or otherwise processed. Shear-induced stretchi…

A unified state diagram for the yielding transition of soft colloids

Stefano Aime, Domenico Truzzolillo, David J. Pine +2

Concentrated colloidal suspensions and emulsions are amorphous soft solids, widespread in technological and industrial applications and studied as model systems in physics and mate…

Probing shear-induced rearrangements in Fourier Space. II. Differential Dynamic Microscopy

Stefano Aime, Luca Cipelletti

We discuss in two companion papers (arXiv:1802.03737 and the present manuscript) how Fourier-space measurements may be coupled to rheological tests in order to elucidate the relati…

Microscopic dynamics and failure precursors of a gel under mechanical load

Stefano Aime, Laurence Ramos, Luca Cipelletti

Material failure is ubiquitous, with implications from geology to everyday life and material science. It often involves sudden, unpredictable events, with little or no macroscopica…
