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…
Universal scaling solution for a rigidity transition: renormalization group flows near the upper critical dimension
Stephen J. Thornton, Danilo B. Liarte, Itai Cohen +1
Rigidity transitions induced by the formation of system-spanning disordered rigid clusters, like the jamming transition, can be well-described in most physically relevant dimension…
Jamming memory into acoustically trained dense suspensions under shear
Edward Y. X. Ong, Anna R. Barth, Navneet Singh +5
Systems driven far from equilibrium often retain structural memories of their processing history. This memory has, in some cases, been shown to dramatically alter the material resp…
-VAE: Curvature regularized variational autoencoders for uncovering emergent low dimensional geometric structure in high dimensional data
Jason Z. Kim, Nicolas Perrin-Gilbert, Erkan Narmanli +5
Natural systems with emergent behaviors often organize along low-dimensional subsets of high-dimensional spaces. For example, despite the tens of thousands of genes in the human ge…
