Rheology of nearly ideal 3d foams
C. D. Jones, K. N. Nordstrom, D. J. Durian
We probe the complex rheology of nearly ideal 3d foam by flowing through a narrow column. The foams we investigate have large bubble size, to minimize the effects of coarsening, an…
Granular Dynamics during Impact
Kerstin Nordstrom, Emily Lim, Matthew Harrington +1
We study the impact of a projectile onto a bed of 3 mm grains immersed in an index-matched fluid. Specifically, we vary the amount of prestrain on the sample, strengthening the for…
Quantifying stretching and rearrangement in epithelial sheet migration
Rachel M. Lee, Douglas H. Kelley, Kerstin N. Nordstrom +2
Although understanding the collective migration of cells, such as that seen in epithelial sheets, is essential for understanding diseases such as metastatic cancer, this motion is…
Dynamical heterogeneity in soft particle suspensions under shear
K. N. Nordstrom, J. P. Gollub, D. J. Durian
We present experimental measurements of dynamical heterogeneities in a dense system of microgel spheres, sheared at different rates and at different packing fractions in a microflu…
Centrifugal compression of soft particle packings - theory and experiment
K. N. Nordstrom, E. Verneuil, W. G. Ellenbroek +3
An exact method is developed for computing the height of an elastic medium subjected to centrifugal compression, for arbitrary constitutive relation between stress and strain. Exam…
Microfluidic rheology of soft colloids above and below jamming
K. N. Nordstrom, E. Verneuil, P. E. Arratia +5
The rheology near jamming of a suspension of soft colloidal spheres is studied using a custom microfluidic rheometer that provides stress versus strain rate over many decades. We f…
