Investigating the Nature of Discontinuous Shear Thickening: Beyond a Mean-Field Description

Jetin E. Thomas, Abhay Goyal, Deshpreet Singh Bedi +3

Dense suspensions can undergo a dramatic increase in viscosity at a critical value of the shear stress. This phenomenon, termed discontinuous shear thickening (DST), has been attri…
