Kinetics of bond formation in crosslinked gelatin gels
T. Abete, E. Del Gado, D. Hellio Serughetti +3
In chemical crosslinking of gelatin solutions, two different time scales affect the kinetics of the gel formation in the experiments. We complement the experimental study with Mont…
Dynamically induced effective interaction in periodically driven granular mixtures
Massimo Pica Ciamarra, Antonio Coniglio, Mario Nicodemi
We discuss the microscopic origin of dynamical instabilities and segregation patterns discovered in granular mixtures under oscillating horizontal shear, by investigating, via mole…
Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics of dense granular media
Massimo Pica Ciamarra, Antonio Coniglio, Mario Nicodemi
By detailed Molecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations %of a realistic model we show that granular materials at rest can be described as thermodynamics systems. First we show t…
Granular segregation under vertical tapping
M. Pica Ciamarra, M. D. De Vizia, A. Fierro +3
We present extensive Molecular Dynamics simulations on species segregation in a granular mixture subject to vertical taps. We discuss how grain properties, e.g., size, density, fri…
Columnar and lamellar phases in attractive colloidal systems
A. de Candia, E. Del Gado, A. Fierro +3
In colloidal suspensions, the competition between attractive and repulsive interactions gives rise to a rich and complex phenomenology. Here, we study the equilibrium phase diagram…
