Rupture dynamics of flat colloidal films

Phalguni Shah, Eleanor Ward, Srishti Arora +1

Here, we report experimental results on the rupture of flat colloidal films over a large range of volume fractions, 0.00 0.47. The films are formed using a constant flui…

Instabilities in freely expanding sheets of associating viscoelastic fluids

S. Arora, A. Louhichi, D. Vlassopoulos +2

We use the impact of drops on a small solid target as a tool to investigate the behavior of viscoelastic fluids under extreme deformation rates. We study two classes of transient n…

Coexistence of solid and liquid phases in shear jammed colloidal drops

Phalguni Shah, Srishti Arora, Michelle M. Driscoll

Complex fluids exhibit a variety of exotic flow behaviours under high stresses, such as shear thickening and shear jamming. Rheology is a powerful tool to characterise these flow b…

Competition between shear and biaxial extensional viscous dissipation in the expansion dynamics of Newtonian and rheo-thinning liquid sheets

Ameur Louhichi, Carole-Ann Charles, Srishti Arora +4

When a drop of fluid hits a small solid target of comparable size, it expands radially until reaching a maximum diameter and subsequently recedes. In this work, we show that the ex…

Gel rupture in a dynamic environment

Kelsey-Ann Leslie, Robert Doane-Solomon, Srishti Arora +3

Hydrogels have had a profound impact in the fields of tissue engineering, drug delivery, and materials science as a whole. Due to the network architecture of these materials, imbib…

Unraveling the Role of Frictional Contacts and Particle Orientational Order During Shear-thickening in Suspensions of Colloidal Rods

Vikram Rathee, Srishti Arora, Daniel L. Blair +3

There is now convincing evidence that inter-particle frictional contacts are essential for observing shear-thickening in concentrated suspensions of compact particles. While this h…
