Experimental and numerical investigation of bubble migration in shear flow: deformability-driven chaining and repulsion
Blandine Feneuil, Kazi Tassawar Iqbal, Atle Jensen +3
We study the interaction-induced migration of bubbles in shear flow and observe that bubbles suspended in elastoviscoplastic emulsions organise into chains aligned in the flow dire…
Irreversibility and rate dependence in sheared adhesive suspensions
Zhouyang Ge, Raffaella Martone, Luca Brandt +1
Recent experiments report that slowly-sheared noncolloidal particle suspensions can exhibit unexpected rate()-dependent complex viscosities in oscillatory shear, despite a const…
Effects of surface nanostructure and wettability on pool boiling: A molecular dynamics study
Armin Shahmardi, Outi Tammisola, Mauro Chinappi +1
We study the role of surface topology, surface chemistry, and wall superheat temperature on the onset of boiling, bubble nucleation and growth, and the possible formation of an ins…
Weakly adhesive suspension shows rate-dependence in oscillatory but not steady shear flows
Zhouyang Ge, Raffaella Martone, Luca Brandt +1
We report rheological measurements of a noncolloidal particle suspension in a Newtonian solvent at 40% solid volume fraction. An anomalous, frequency-dependent complex viscosity is…
Implementation note on a minimal hybrid lubrication/granular dynamics model for dense suspensions
Zhouyang Ge, Luca Brandt
We describe and summarize a class of minimal numerical models emerged from recent development of simulation methods for dense particle suspensions in overdamped linear flows. The m…
The effect of elastic walls on suspension flow
Marco Edoardo Rosti, Mehdi Niazi Ardekani, Luca Brandt
We study suspensions of rigid particles in a plane Couette flow with deformable elastic walls. We find that, in the limit of vanishing inertia, the elastic walls induce shear thinn…
Rheology of confined non-Brownian suspensions
Walter Fornari, Luca Brandt, Pinaki Chaudhuri +3
We study the rheology of confined suspensions of neutrally buoyant rigid monodisperse spheres in plane-Couette flow using Direct Numerical Simulations. We find that if the width of…
