Force chains and networks: wet suspensions through dry granular eyes

Rangarajan Radhakrishnan, John R. Royer, Wilson C. K. Poon +1

Recent advances in shear-thickening suspension rheology suggest a relation between (wet) suspension flow below jamming and (dry) granular physics. To probe this connection, we simu…

Testing the Wyart-Cates model for non-Brownian shear thickening using bidisperse suspensions

Ben M. Guy, Christopher Ness, Michiel Hermes +3

There is a growing consensus that shear thickening of concentrated dispersions is driven by the formation of stress-induced frictional contacts. The Wyart-Cates (WC) model of this…

Linking particle properties to paste extrusion flow characteristics using discrete element simulations

Christopher Ness, Jin Y. Ooi, Jin Sun +4

Extrusion is a widely used process for forming pastes into designed shapes, and is central to the manufacture of many industrial products. The extrusion through a square-entry die…

Tunable Shear Thickening in Suspensions

Neil Y. C. Lin, Christopher Ness, Michael E. Cates +2

Shear thickening, an increase of viscosity with shear rate, is a ubiquitous phenomena in suspended materials that has implications for broad technological applications. Controlling…

Shear thickening regimes of dense non-Brownian suspensions

Christopher Ness, Jin Sun

We propose a unifying rheological framework for dense suspensions of non-Brownian spheres, predicting the onsets of particle friction and particle inertia as distinct shear thicken…

Hydrodynamic and contact contributions to shear thickening in colloidal suspensions

Neil Y. C. Lin, Ben M. Guy, Michiel Hermes +4

Shear thickening is a widespread phenomenon in suspension flow that, despite sustained study, is still the subject of much debate. The longstanding view that shear thickening is du…
