Discontinuous rate-stiffening in a granular composite modeled after cornstarch and water
Nature Communications, 2019 Cornstarch and water is a mixture that solidifies under impact. The authors find that ordinary sand behaves in a similar way when coated with a thin layer of viscoelastic polymer, suggesting a potential route for designing materials which respond ...

Collective Memory: Transposing Pavlov’s Experiment to Robot Swarms
Applied Sciences, 2021 Remembering information is a fundamental aspect of cognition present in numerous natural systems. It allows adaptation of the behavior as a function of previously encountered situations. For instance, many living organisms use memory to recall if a given

Quantized valley Hall response from local bulk density variations
Communications Physics, 2023 The application of a mechanical strain to a 2D material can create pseudo-magnetic fields and lead to a quantized valley Hall effect. However, measuring valley-resolved effects remains a challenging task due to their inherent fragility and dependence on ...

Jamming Transition: Heptagons, Pentagons, and Discs
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 The jamming behavior of a system composed of discs has been well documented. However, it remains unclear how a granular system consisting of non-spherical particles transitions between unjammed and jammed states.

Ascertaining when a basin is Wada: the merging method
Scientific Reports, 2018 Trying to imagine three regions separated by a unique boundary seems a difficult task. However, this is exactly what happens in many dynamical systems showing Wada basins.

Jamming by compressing a system of granular crosses
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 A disordered stress-free granular packing can be jammed, transformed into a mechanically rigid structure, by increasing the density of particles or by applying shear deformation.
