Particle Size Effects in Flow-Stabilized Solids

Scott Lindauer, Carlos P. Ortiz, Robert Riehn +1

Flow-stabilized solids are a class of fragile matter that forms when a dense suspension of colloids accumulates against a semi-permeable barrier, for flow rates above a critical va…

Nonaffine deformation under compression and decompression of a flow-stabilized solid

Carlos P. Ortiz, Robert Riehn, Karen E. Daniels

Understanding the particle-scale transition from elastic deformation to plastic flow is central to making predictions about the bulk material properties and response of disordered…

Nonlinear Elasticity of Flow-Stabilized Solids

Carlos P. Ortiz, Karen E. Daniels, Robert Riehn

Thermal fluctuations, geometric exclusion, and external driving all govern the mechanical response of dense particulate suspensions. Here, we measure the stress-strain response of…

Flow-Driven Formation of Solid-like Microsphere Heaps

Carlos P. Ortiz, Robert Riehn, Karen E. Daniels

We observe the formation of heaps of repulsive microspheres, created by flowing a colloidal microsphere suspension towards a flat-topped ridge placed within a quasi two-dimensional…

Diffusion mechanisms of localised knots along a polymer

Ralf Metzler, Walter Reisner, Robert Riehn +3

We consider the diffusive motion of a localized knot along a linear polymer chain. In particular, we derive the mean diffusion time of the knot before it escapes from the chain onc…
