Properties of packings and dispersions of superellipse sector particles
John Colt, Lucas Nelson, Sykes Cargile +2
Superellipse sector particles (SeSPs) are segments of superelliptical curves that form a tunable set of hard-particle shapes for granular and colloidal systems. SeSPs allow for con…
The Excluded Area of Superellipse Sector Particles
Kellianne Kornick, Ted Brzinski, Scott V. Franklin
Superellipse sector particles (SeSPs) are segments of superelliptical curves that form a tunable set of hard-particle shapes for granular and colloidal systems. SeSPs allow for con…
Random packing of rods in small containers
Julian O. Freeman, Sean Peterson, Cong Cao +3
We conduct experiments and simulations to study the disordered packing of rods in small containers. Experiments study cylindrical rods with aspect ratio ranging from 4 to 32; simul…
Dynamic facilitation observed near the colloidal glass transition
Scott V. Franklin, Eric R. Weeks
We present experimental confirmation of dynamic facilitation in monodisperse and bidisperse colloidal suspensions near the glass transition volume fraction. Correlations in particl…
Compression- and Shear-Driven Jamming of U-Shaped Particles in Two Dimensions
Theodore Marschall, Scott V. Franklin, S. Teitel
We carry out numerical simulations of soft, U-shaped, frictionless particles in dimensions in order to explore the effects of complex particle shape on the jamming transition…
Entangled granular media
Nick Gravish, Scott V. Franklin, David L. Hu +1
We study the geometrically induced cohesion of ensembles of granular "u-particles" which mechanically entangle through particle interpenetration. We vary the length-to-width ratio…
