Lopsided Elastic Dumbbell Suspension
N. Phan-Thien, M. A. Kanso, A. J. Giacomin
We derive the constitutive equation for a suspension of lopsided Hookean dumbbells. By lopsided, we mean that one bead is larger than the other. We find that all results derived fo…
What will be the maximum Tc in the iron-based superconductors?
Xiuqing Huang
Using the newly developed real space vortex-lattice based theory of superconductivity, we study the maximum superconducting transition temperature (T_{c}^{\max}) in the iron-based…
Effective Action and Schwinger Pair Production in Scalar QED
Sang Pyo Kim, Hyun Kyu Lee
Some astrophysical objects are supposed to have very strong electromagnetic fields above the critical strength. Quantum fluctuations due to strong electromagnetic fields modify the…
Theory of Thermodynamic Stresses in Colloidal Dispersions at the Glass Transition
D. Hajnal, O. Henrich, J. J. Crassous +4
We discuss the nonlinear rheology of dense colloidal dispersions at the glass transition. A first principles approach starting with interacting Brownian particles in given arbitrar…
Rheological properties of a granular impurity in the Couette flow
Francisco Vega Reyes, Vicente Garzo, Andres Santos
We discuss in this work the validity of the theoretical solution of the nonlinear Couette flow for a granular impurity obtained in a recent work [preprint arXiv:0802.0526], in the…
A viscoelastic deadly fluid in carnivorous pitcher plants
Laurence Gaume, Yoël Forterre
Background : The carnivorous plants of the genus Nepenthes, widely distributed in the Asian tropics, rely mostly on nutrients derived from arthropods trapped in their pitcher-shape…
