Highly Anisotropic Vorticity Aligned Structures in a Shear Thickening Attractive Colloidal System
Chinedum O. Osuji, David A. Weitz
Vorticity aligned cylindrical flocs of carbon black particles are coincident with a primary shear thickening transition in steady flow and also appear as transient structures in th…
Shear Thickening and Scaling of the Elastic Modulus in a Fractal Colloidal System with Attractive Interactions
Chinedum O. Osuji, Chanjoong Kim, David A. Weitz
Dilute oil dispersions of fractal carbon black particles with attractive Van der Waals interactions display continuous shear thickening followed by shear thinning at high shear rat…
Non-equilibrium microtubule fluctuations in a model cytoskeleton
C. P. Brangwynne, G. H. Koenderink, F. C. MacKintosh +1
Biological activity gives rise to non-equilibrium fluctuations in the cytoplasm of cells; however, there are few methods to directly measure these fluctuations. Using a reconstitut…
