Near-surface colloidal dynamics in jammed and slipping microgel suspensions

Masoodah Gunny, Frédérick Caetano, Matilde Bureau +4

Jammed suspensions of soft microgel particles may exhibit slippage along smooth boundaries. Owing to their expected sub-micrometric dimensions, direct observations of dynamics with…

Discrepancies in dynamic yield stress measurements of cement pastes

Subhransu Dhar, Teresa Liberto, Catherine Barentin +2

The dynamic yield stress associated with the flow cessation of cement pastes is measured using a rheometer equipped with various shear geometries such as vane, helical, sandblasted…

Ductile-to-brittle transition and yielding in soft amorphous materials: perspectives and open questions

Thibaut Divoux, Elisabeth Agoritsas, Stefano Aime +37

Soft amorphous materials are viscoelastic solids ubiquitously found around us, from clays and cementitious pastes to emulsions and physical gels encountered in food or biomedical e…

Continuum modeling of Soft Glassy Materials under shear

Roberto Benzi, Thibaut Divoux, Catherine Barentin +3

Soft Glassy Materials (SGM) consist in dense amorphous assemblies of colloidal particles of multiple shapes, elasticity, and interactions, which confer upon them solid-like propert…

Continuum modelling of shear start-up in soft glassy materials

Roberto Benzi, Thibaut Divoux, Catherine Barentin +3

Yield stress fluids (YSFs) display a dual nature highlighted by the existence of a yield stress such that YSFs are solid below the yield stress, whereas they flow like liquids abov…

Stress Overshoots in Simple Yield Stress Fluids

Roberto Benzi, Thibaut Divoux, Catherine Barentin +3

Soft glassy materials such as mayonnaise, wet clays, or dense microgels display under external shear a solid-to-liquid transition. Such a shear-induced transition is often associat…
