Space-resolved dynamic light scattering within a millimetric drop: from Brownian diffusion to the swelling of hydrogel beads

Matteo Milani, Ty Phou, Guillame Prevot +2

We present a novel dynamic light scattering setup to probe, with time and space resolution, the microscopic dynamics of soft matter systems confined within millimeter-sized spheric…

A double rigidity transition rules the fate of drying colloidal drops

Milani M, Phou T, Ligoure C +2

The evaporation of drops of colloidal suspensions plays an important role in numerous contexts, such as the production of powdered dairies, the synthesis of functional supraparticl…

Spinning elastic beads: a route for simultaneous measurements of shear modulus and interfacial energy of soft materials

Alessandro Carbonaro, Kennedy-Nexon Chagua-Encarnacion, Carole-Ann Charles +4

Large deformations of soft elastic beads spinning at high angular velocity in a denser background fluid are investigated theoretically, numerically, and experimentally using millim…

Biaxial extensional viscous dissipation in sheets expansion formed by impact of drops of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids

Ameur Louhichi, Carole-Ann Charles, Ty Phou +3

We investigate freely expanding liquid sheets made of either simple Newtonian fluids or solutions of high molecular water-soluble polymer chains. A sheet is produced by the impact…

The Shape of Hanging Elastic Cylinders

Serge Mora, Edward Ando, Jean-Marc Fromental +2

Deformations of heavy elastic cylinders with their axis in the direction of earth's gravity field are investigated. The specimens, made of polyacrylamide hydrogels, are attached fr…

A novel setup coupling space-resolved dynamic light scattering and rheometetry unveils the heterogeneous flow field and non-affine dynamics in startup shear of a gel

A. Pommella, A. -M. Philippe, T. Phou +2

We present a new light scattering setup coupled to a commercial rheometer operated in the plate-plate geometry. The apparatus allows the microscopic dynamics to be measured, discri…
