Granular Hydrogels as Brittle Yield Stress Fluids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports the Kamani‐Donley‐Rogers yield stress fluid model can describe granular hydrogel deformation. The model robustly captures transient rheology and self‐healing behavior for granular gels of varying composition using only six parameters. This framework provides new insight regarding the effect of material parameters on granular yielding ...
