Investigating the Nature of Discontinuous Shear Thickening: Beyond a Mean-Field Description

Jetin E. Thomas, Abhay Goyal, Deshpreet Singh Bedi +3

Dense suspensions can undergo a dramatic increase in viscosity at a critical value of the shear stress. This phenomenon, termed discontinuous shear thickening (DST), has been attri…

A Mechanistic Model of the Organization of Cell Shapes in Epithelial Tissues

Kanaya Malakar, Rafael I. Rubenstein, Dapeng Bi +1

The organization of cells within tissues plays a vital role in various biological processes, including development and morphogenesis. As a result, understanding how cells self-orga…

Stress-stress Correlations Reveal Force Chains in Gels

H. A. Vinutha, Fabiola Diaz Ruiz, Xiaoming Mao +2

We investigate the spatial correlations of microscopic stresses in soft particulate gels, using 2D and 3D numerical simulations. We use a recently developed theoretical framework p…

Modeling the Transition between Localized and Extended Deposition in Flow Networks through Packings of Glass Beads

Gess Kelly, Navid Bizmark, Bulbul Chakraborty +2

We use a theoretical model to explore how fluid dynamics, in particular, the pressure gradient and wall shear stress in a channel, affect the deposition of particles flowing in a m…

Microscopic Reversibility and Emergent Elasticity in Ultrastable Granular Systems

Yiqiu Zhao, Yuchen Zhao, Dong Wang +3

In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. X 12, 031021], we reported experimental observations of ``ultrastable'' states in a shear-jammed granular system subjected to small-amplitude cyclic s…

Incorporating tunability into a universal scaling framework for shear thickening

Meera Ramaswamy, Itay Griniasty, James P Sethna +2

Recently, we proposed a universal scaling framework that shows shear thickening in dense suspensions is governed by the crossover between two critical points: one associated with f…
