Population-balance description of shear-induced clustering, gelation and suspension viscosity in sheared DLVO colloids
M. Lattuada, A. Zaccone, H. Wu +1
Application of shear flow to charge-stabilized aqueous colloidal suspensions is ubiquitous in industrial applications and as a means to achieve controlled field-induced assembly of…
Shear-driven solidification of dilute colloidal suspensions
Alessio Zaccone, Daniele Gentili, Hua Wu +2
We show that the shear-induced solidification of dilute charge-stabilized (DLVO) colloids is due to the interplay between the shear-induced formation and breakage of large non-Brow…
Shear-induced reaction-limited aggregation kinetics of Brownian particles at arbitrary concentrations
Alessio Zaccone, Daniele Gentili, Hua Wu +1
The aggregation of interacting Brownian particles in sheared concentrated suspensions is an important issue in colloid and soft matter science per se. Also, it serves as a model to…
Breakup of dense colloidal aggregates under hydrodynamic stresses
A. Zaccone, M. Soos, M. Lattuada +2
Flow-induced aggregation of colloidal particles leads to aggregates with fairly high fractal dimension () which are directly responsible for the observed rheological properties of…
Theory of activated-rate processes under shear with application to shear-induced aggregation of colloids
Alessio Zaccone, Daniele Gentili, Hua Wu +1
Using a novel approximation scheme within the convective diffusion (two body Smoluchowski) equation framework, we unveil the shear-driven aggregation mechanism at the origin of str…
