Kinetics of coagulation phenomena from a granular matter perspective
Gustavo Castillo, Nicolás Mujica
Aggregation processes play a central role in systems ranging from aerosol coagulation and cloud formation to dust growth in protoplanetary disks and granular materials. These proce…
Impact of Initial Charge Distributions on the Kinetics of Charged Particle Coagulation
Gustavo Castillo, Nicolás Mujica
We investigate the kinetics of particle aggregation within the framework of the Smoluchowski coagulation equation, extending it to account for electrostatic interactions among char…
Microscopic model for a granular solid-liquid-like phase transition
Sébastien Aumaître, Nicolas Mujica
Forced granular matter in confined geometries presents phase transitions and coexistence. Depending on the system and forcing parameters, liquid-vapor and liquid-solid co-existing…
Nonlinear acoustic characterization of heterogeneous plasticity in bent aluminium samples
Carolina Espinoza, Vicente Salinas, Makarena Osorio +4
Knowledge of the state of plastic deformation in metallic structures is vital to prevent failure. This is why non-destructive acoustic tests based on the measurement of first order…
Hyperuniform states generated by a critical friction field
Gustavo Castillo, Nicolas Mujica, Nestor Sepulveda +3
Hyperuniform states are an efficient way to fill up space for disordered systems. In these states the particle distribution is disordered at the short scale but becomes increasingl…
Streaming patterns in Faraday waves
Nicolas Périnet, Pablo Gutiérrez, Héctor Urra +2
Waves patterns in the Faraday instability have been studied for decades. Besides the rich dynamics that can be observed on the waves at the interface, Faraday waves hide beneath th…
