Order and density fluctuations near the boundary in sheared dense suspensions
Joia M. Miller, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach
We introduce a novel approach to reveal ordering fluctuations in sheared dense suspensions, using line scanning in a combined rheometer and laser scanning confocal microscope. We v…
Structure of propagating high stress fronts in a shear thickening suspension
Vikram Rathee, Joia M. Miller, Daniel L. Blair +1
We report direct measurements of spatially resolved stress at the boundary of a shear thickening cornstarch suspension revealing persistent regions of high local stress propagating…
Dynamics and memory of boundary stresses in discontinuous shear thickening suspensions during oscillatory shear
Vikram Rathee, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach
We report direct measurements of spatially resolved surface stresses of a dense suspension during large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) in the discontinuous shear thickening reg…
Shear-induced gelation of self-yielding active networks
David A. Gagnon, Claudia Dessi, John P. Berezney +4
Molecular-motor generated active stresses drive the cytoskeleton away from equilibrium, endowing it with tunable mechanical properties that are essential for diverse functions such…
Localized Transient Jamming in Discontinuous Shear Thickening
Vikram Rathee, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach
We report direct measurements of spatially resolved surface stresses over the entire surface of a dense suspension during discontinuous shear thickening (DST) using Boundary Stress…
Unraveling the Role of Frictional Contacts and Particle Orientational Order During Shear-thickening in Suspensions of Colloidal Rods
Vikram Rathee, Srishti Arora, Daniel L. Blair +3
There is now convincing evidence that inter-particle frictional contacts are essential for observing shear-thickening in concentrated suspensions of compact particles. While this h…
