Effects of particle compressibility on structural and mechanical properties of compressed soft granular materials
Thi-Lo Vu, Saeid Nezamabadi, Serge Mora
Changes in the mechanical properties of granular materials, induced by variations in the intrinsic compressibility of the particles, are investigated by means of numerical simulati…
Synchronous whirling of spinning homogeneous elastic cylinders: linear and weakly non-linear analyses
S. Mora
Stationary whirling of slender and homogeneous (continuous) elastic shafts rotating around their axis, with pin-pin boundary condition at the ends, is revisited by considering the…
Cutting and slicing weak solids
Serge Mora, Yves Pomeau
Dicing soft solids with a sharp knife is quicker and smoother if the blade is sliding rapidly parallel to its edge in addition to the normal squeezing motion. We explain this commo…
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…
Fractures in complex fluids: the case of transient networks
Christian Ligoure, Serge Mora
We present a comprehensive review of the current state of fracture phenomena in transient networks, a wide class of viscoelastic fluids. We will first define what is a fracture in…
Microemulsion nanocomposites: phase diagram, rheology and structure using a combined small angle neutron scattering and reverse Monte Carlo approach
Nicolas Puech, Serge Mora, Ty Phou +3
The effect of silica nanoparticles on transient microemulsion networks made of microemulsion droplets and telechelic copolymer molecules in water is studied, as a function of dropl…
