Weber-number scaling and the distance dependence of drop size in full-cone pressure-swirl sprays

Bilal Ben Jemaa, Vincent He, Marko Trifunović +2

A pressure-swirl nozzle converts the feed pressure into a swirling conical sheet that breaks into ligaments and then into drops. The size of the drops governs the deposition and dr…

Thixotropy versus viscoelasticity: a matter of time

Rishabh V. More

Thixotropic and viscoelastic materials both retain their deformation history and are difficult to distinguish. However, a stationary linear response obeys the Kramers-Kronig relati…

Strain-transport superposition in shear-thinning dense non-Brownian suspensions

Rishabh V. More

Shear thinning in dense non-Brownian suspensions is often attributed to shear-induced microstructural evolution, including changes in alignment, anisotropy, and near-contact statis…

The role of the second normal stress difference in rod-climbing effect

Rishabh More

The Weissenberg (rod-climbing) effect, i.e., the rise of a viscoelastic fluid along a thin rotating rod, has long served as a canonical demonstration of elasticity and normal-stres…

To roll or not to roll(?) is the yield stress (in soft particulate gels)

Rishabh More, Gareth Mckinley

While it is widely acknowledged that system-spanning particulate structures contribute to the observed yield stress and shear-thinning in attractive colloidal gels, a comprehensive…

Elasto-Inertial Instability in Torsional Flows of Shear-Thinning Viscoelastic Fluids

Rishabh V. More, Eugene Pashkovski, Reid Patterson +1

It is well known that inertia-free shearing flows of a viscoelastic fluid with curved streamlines, such as the torsional flow between a rotating cone and plate, or the flow in a Ta…

Rod-climbing rheometry revisited

Rishabh V. More, Reid Patterson, Eugene Pashkovski +1

The rod-climbing or Weissenberg effect in which the free surface of a complex fluid climbs a thin rotating rod is a popular and convincing experiment demonstrating the existence of…

Rheology of dense fiber suspensions: Origin of yield stress, shear thinning and normal stress differences

Monsurul Khan, Rishabh V. More, Luca Brandt +1

We explain the origins of yield stress, shear-thinning, and normal stress differences in rigid fiber suspensions. We investigate the interplay between the hydrodynamic, colloidal a…

A constitutive model for viscosity of dense fiber suspension

Monsurul Khan, Rishabh V. More, Arezoo M. Ardekani

We propose a constitutive model to predict the viscosity of fiber suspensions, which undergoes shear thinning, at various volume fractions, aspect ratios, and shear stresses/rates.…

Rheology of concentrated suspension of fibers with load dependent friction coefficient

Monsurul Khan, Rishabh V. More, Arash Alizad Banaei +2

We numerically investigate the effects of fiber aspect ratio, roughness, flexibility, and flow inertia on the rheology of concentrated suspensions. We perform direct numerical simu…

Orientation instability of settling spheroids in a linearly density stratified fluid

Rishabh V. More, Mehdi N. Ardekani, Luca Brandt +1

Much work has been done to understand the settling dynamics of spherical particles in a homogeneous and a stratified fluid. However, the effects of shape anisotropy on the settling…

A unifying mechanism to explain the rate dependent rheological behavior in non-Brownian suspensions: One curve to unify them all

Rishabh V. More, Arezoo M. Ardekani

We propose a unifying mechanism based on the Stribeck curve for the coefficient of friction between the particles to capture the shear thinning - Newtonian plateau - shear thickeni…
