Flow instabilities in complex fluids: Nonlinear rheology and slow relaxations
A. Aradian, M. E. Cates
We here present two simplified models aimed at describing the long-term, irregular behaviours observed in the rheological response of certain complex fluids, such as periodic oscil…

Tensorial Constitutive Models for Disordered Foams, Dense Emulsions, and other Soft Nonergodic Materials
M. E. Cates, P. Sollich
In recent years, the paradigm of `soft glassy matter' has been used to describe diverse nonergodic materials exhibiting strong local disorder and slow mesoscopic rearrangement. As…

A possible new phase of antagonistic nematogens in a disorienting field
T. G. Sokolovska, M. E. Cates, R. O. Sokolovskii
A simple model is proposed for nematogenic molecules that favor perpendicular orientations as well as parallel ones. (Charged rods, for example, show this antagonistic tendency.) W…
