Clogging of soft particles in 2D hoppers
Xia Hong, Meghan Kohne, Mia Morrell +2
Using experiments and simulations, we study the flow of soft particles through quasi-two-dimensional hoppers. The first experiment uses oil-in-water emulsion droplets in a thin sam…
Energy barriers, entropy barriers, and non-Arrhenius behavior in a minimal glassy model
Xin Du, Eric R. Weeks
We study glassy dynamics using a simulation of three soft Brownian particles confined to a two-dimensional circular region. If the circular region is large, the disks freely rearra…
Snap-off production of monodisperse droplets
Solomon Barkley, Eric R. Weeks, Kari Dalnoki-Veress
We introduce a novel technique to produce monodisperse droplets through the snap-off mechanism. The methodology is simple, versatile, and requires no specialized or expensive compo…
Clogging and avalanches in quasi-two-dimensional emulsion hopper flow
Xia Hong, Kenneth W. Desmond, Dandan Chen +1
We experimentally and computationally study the flow of a quasi-two-dimensional emulsion through a constricting hopper shape. Our area fractions are above jamming such that the dro…
