Persistence of Coffee-Ring Deposits in Concentrated Suspensions of Anisotropic Colloids
Samuel S. Nielsen, Ryker Fish, Brian C. Seper +2
Evaporating a droplet containing dispersed colloids leaves behind a dried deposit whose shape is determined by capillary flows and the resulting particle transport. The classical c…
Orientational bistability and field-controlled switching of a superparamagnetic dimer
James R. N. Tett, Finlay Johnston, Brennan Sprinkle +1
We study the orientational dynamics of superparamagnetic colloidal dimers that carry both an induced magnetic moment, proportional to the applied field, and an effective permanent…
Emergent clusters in strongly confined systems
Pamud Akalanka Bethmage, Ryker Fish, Brennan Sprinkle +1
Driven suspensions, where energy is input at a particle scale, are a framework for understanding general principles of out-of-equilibrium organization. A large number of simple int…
libMobility: A Python library for hydrodynamics at the Smoluchowski level
Ryker Fish, Adam Carter, Pablo Diez-Silva +3
Effective hydrodynamic modeling is crucial for accurately predicting fluid-particle interactions in diverse fields such as biophysics and materials science. Developing and implemen…
Measuring collective diffusion properties by counting particles in boxes
Adam Carter, Eleanor K. R. Mackay, Brennan Sprinkle +2
The collective diffusion coefficient is a key quantity for describing the macroscopic transport properties of soft matter systems. However, measuring $D_\mathrm{c…
