Universal scaling of shear thickening suspensions under acoustic perturbation
Anna R. Barth, Navneet Singh, Stephen J. Thornton +7
Tuning shear thickening behavior is a longstanding problem in the field of dense suspensions. Acoustic perturbations offer a convenient way to control shear thickening in real time…

Rigidity transitions in anisotropic networks happen in multiple steps
William Y. Wang, Stephen J. Thornton, Bulbul Chakraborty +7
We study how the rigidity transition in a triangular lattice changes as a function of anisotropy by preferentially filling bonds on the lattice in one direction. We discover that t…
