DEM analysis of the effect of particle shape, cohesion and strain rate on powder rheometry
Powder Technology, 2019 Discrete Element Method (DEM) is used to simulate the flow of particles addressing the influence of shear strain rate, particle shape and cohesion on the flow characteristics.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Applied SciencesParticle shape is a critical factor governing the macroscopic behavior of granular materials. While the Discrete Element Method (DEM) has proven to be a powerful tool for modeling these materials, the accurate representation of particles with realistic ...

Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2015 The mechanical performance of underground flexible structures such as buried pipes or culverts made of plastics depend not only on the properties of the structure, but also on the material surrounding it.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Zener Pinning by Differently Shaped and Oriented Particles
Frontiers in Materials, 2021 Zener pinning between a curved Cu grain boundary (GB) and a differently shaped and oriented Ag particle has been simulated via molecular dynamics. The computed magnitudes of the maximum pinning force agreed with theoretical predictions only when the ...

Transforming Mesoscale Granular Plasticity Through Particle Shape [PDF]
Physical Review X, 2018 When an amorphous material is strained beyond the point of yielding it enters a state of continual reconfiguration via dissipative, avalanche-like slip events that relieve built-up local stress.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Shape matters: Competing mechanisms of particle shape segregation
Physical Review E, 2022 It is well-known that granular mixtures that differ in size or shape segregate when sheared. In the past, two mechanisms have been proposed to describe this effect, and it is unclear if both exist. To settle this question, we consider a bidisperse mixture of spheroids of equal volume in a rotating drum, where the two mechanisms are predicted to act in ...
