Shear stress during self-assembly encodes stiffness of network-based materials
Lens M. Dedroog, Olivier Deschaume, Carmen Bartic +4
The mechanical properties of network-based materials have been extensively studied under qui- escent conditions, yet their self-assembly in nature occurs mainly in a mechanically s…
How rigidity percolation and bending stiffness shape colloidal gel elasticity
David Richard, Mehdi Bouzid
Dispersed colloidal particles within a suspension can aggregate and spontaneously self-organize into a robust, percolating structure known as a gel. These network-like structures a…
Ductile-to-brittle transition and yielding in soft amorphous materials: perspectives and open questions
Thibaut Divoux, Elisabeth Agoritsas, Stefano Aime +37
Soft amorphous materials are viscoelastic solids ubiquitously found around us, from clays and cementitious pastes to emulsions and physical gels encountered in food or biomedical e…
The hidden hierarchical nature of soft particulate gels
Minaspi Bantawa, Bavand Keshavarz, Michela Geri +4
Soft particulate gels include materials we can eat, squeeze, or 3D print. From foods to bio-inks to cement hydrates, these gels are composed of a small amount of particulate matter…
Evidences of conformal invariance in 2d rigidity percolation
Nina Javerzat, Mehdi Bouzid
The rigidity transition occurs when, as the density of microscopic components is increased, a disordered medium becomes able to transmit and ensure macroscopic mechanical stability…
Multi-component colloidal gels: interplay between structure and mechanical proprieties
Claudia Ferreiro-Cordova, Mehdi Bouzid, Emanuela Del Gado +1
We present a detailed numerical study of multi-component colloidal gels interacting sterically and obtained by arrested phase separation. Under deformation, we found that the inter…
