Sedimentation profiles and phase stacking diagrams in polydisperse hard rounded rectangle fluids
Tobias Eckert, Daniel de las Heras, Enrique Velasco +1
We analyze the sedimentation behavior of a polydisperse two-dimensional liquid-crystal fluid using a local density functional theory based on scaled particle theory. Polydispersity…
Local measures of fluctuations in inhomogeneous liquids: Statistical mechanics and illustrative applications
Tobias Eckert, Nex C. X. Stuhlmüller, Florian Sammüller +1
We show in detail how three one-body fluctuation profiles, namely the local compressibility, the local thermal susceptibility, and the reduced density, can be obtained from a stati…
Effect of sample height and particle elongation in the sedimentation of colloidal rods
Tobias Eckert, Matthias Schmidt, Daniel de las Heras
We study theoretically the effect of a gravitational field on the equilibrium behaviour of a colloidal suspension of rods with different length-to-width aspect ratios. The bulk pha…
Sedimentation path theory for mass-polydisperse colloidal systems
Tobias Eckert, Matthias Schmidt, Daniel de las Heras
Both polydispersity and the presence of a gravitational field are inherent to essentially any colloidal experiment. While several theoretical works have focused on the effect of po…
Sedimentation of colloidal plate-sphere mixtures and inference of particle characteristics from stacking sequences
T. Eckert, M. Schmidt, D. de las Heras
We investigate theoretically the effect of gravity on a plate-sphere colloidal mixture by means of an Onsager-like density functional to describe the bulk, and sedimentation path t…
Gravity-induced phase phenomena in plate-rod colloidal mixtures
Tobias Eckert, Matthias Schmidt, Daniel de las Heras
Gravity can affect colloidal suspensions since for micrometer-sized particles gravitational and thermal energies can be comparable over vertical length scales of a few millimeters.…
Fluctuation profiles in inhomogeneous fluids
Tobias Eckert, Nex C. X. Stuhlmüller, Florian Sammüller +1
Three one-body profiles that correspond to local fluctuations in energy, in entropy, and in particle number are used to describe the equilibrium properties of inhomogeneous classic…
Structural nonequilibrium forces in driven colloidal systems
Nex C. X. Stuhlmüller, Tobias Eckert, Daniel de las Heras +1
We identify a structural one-body force field that sustains spatial inhomogeneities in nonequilibrium overdamped Brownian many-body systems. The structural force is perpendicular t…
