Shear thinning and shear thickening of a confined suspension of vesicles [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2018 Widely regarded as an interesting model system for studying flow properties of blood, vesicles are closed membranes of phospholipids that mimic the cytoplasmic membranes of red blood cells. In this study we analyze the rheology of a suspension of vesicles in a confined geometry: the suspension, bound by two planar rigid walls on each side, is subject ...

Effect of Surface Roughness on the Rheology of Silica-Coated Styrene/Acrylic Acid Copolymer Suspensions [PDF]
علوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2023 Hypothesis: Today, due to the widespread use of coarse particle suspensions in chemical industry, the tendency to study the rheological behaviour of suspensions has increased significantly.

Generality of shear thickening in dense suspensions [PDF]
Nature Materials, 2010 Suspensions are of wide interest and form the basis for many smart fluids. For most suspensions, the viscosity decreases with increasing shear rate, that is, they shear thin. Few are reported to do the opposite, that is, shear thicken, despite the longstanding expectation that shear thickening is a generic type of suspension behaviour.

(Dis)continuous shear thickening in frictionless granular media? [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesContinuous and discontinuous shear thickening are commonly observed in sheared dense suspensions but are still not fully understood. Although micro-friction at particle-particle contacts is widely accepted as the dominating origin of discontinuous shear ...

‘Shear thickening’ in non-shear flows: the effect of microstructure [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017 The bizarre behaviour of a cornstarch suspension (sometimes called oobleck) is well known to all of us who have led public engagement events. At the right solids fraction, it flows smoothly at slow speeds, but can be shattered with a quick spoon movement; if you prepare a large enough sample, you can run across the surface (but if you stand still, you ...
