Geomimicry: Emergent Dynamics in Earth-Mediated Complex Materials
Shravan Pradeep, Emanuela Del Gado, Douglas J. Jerolmack +1
Soils and sediments are soft, amorphous materials with complex microstructures and mechanical properties, that are also building blocks for industrial materials such as concrete. T…
Exploring the Nonlinear Rheology of Composite Hydrogels: A New Paradigm for LAOS Analysis
Wayan A. Fontaine-Seiler, Gavin J. Donley, Emanuela Del Gado +1
We investigate composite biopolymer networks composed of co-polymerized fibrin and gelatin networks and perform rheological measurements over a broad parameter space including stra…
The hidden hierarchical nature of soft particulate gels
Minaspi Bantawa, Bavand Keshavarz, Michela Geri +4
Soft particulate gels include materials we can eat, squeeze, or 3D print. From foods to bio-inks to cement hydrates, these gels are composed of a small amount of particulate matter…
Time-resolved microstructural changes in large amplitude oscillatory shear of model single and double component soft gels
Gavin J. Donley, Minaspi Bantawa, Emanuela Del Gado
Soft particulate gels can reversibly yield when sufficient deformation is applied, and the characteristics of this transition can be enhanced or limited by designing hybrid hydroge…
Microscopic interactions and emerging elasticity in model soft particulate gels
Minaspi Bantawa, Wayan A. Fontaine-Seiler, Peter D. Olmsted +1
We discuss a class of models for particulate gels in which the particle contacts are described by an effective interaction combining a two-body attraction and a three-body angular…
Correlated rigidity percolation and colloidal gels
Shang Zhang, Leyou Zhang, Mehdi Bouzid +3
Rigidity percolation (RP) occurs when mechanical stability emerges in disordered networks as constraints or components are added. Here we discuss RP with structural correlations, a…
