Bimodal colloids highlight the structural mirror of rigidity percolation and yielding
Robert A. Campbell, Ziye Zhuang, Ali Mohraz +1
In metastable particulate gels, it is tempting to believe that the dynamic similarities between the fluid-to-solid non-linear phase transition of rigidity percolation and the solid…

Brush-mediated angular constraints reshape structure, rigidity, and percolation in colloidal depletion gels
Ziye Zhuang, Robert A. Campbell, Paniz Haghighi +2
Colloidal gels, like many other soft and disordered solids derive their mechanical properties not only from the strength of interparticle attraction, but also from the symmetry of…
