Dramatic effect of fluid chemistry on cornstarch suspensions: linking particle interactions to macroscopic rheology [PDF]

, 2017
Suspensions of cornstarch in water exhibit strong dynamic shear-thickening. We show that partly replacing water by ethanol strongly alters the suspension rheology.

Characterization and performance analysis of a shear thickening fluid damper

Measurement + Control, 2019
Shear thickening fluid is a smart material with rheological properties that can be rapidly varied by excitation changes. To fully explore the advantages of using shear thickening fluid in various devices, a phenomenological model for simulating complex ...

Blast Effects of a Shear Thickening Fluid-Based Stemming Material

Mining, 2022
The Trauzl test is widely used to measure the explosive power of a substance by determining the volume increase produced by the detonation of a tested explosive charge in the cavity of a lead block with defined quality and size. In this study, the Trauzl

Shear thickening in densely packed suspensions of spheres and rods confined to few layers [PDF]

, 2010
We investigate confined shear thickening suspensions for which the sample thickness is comparable to the particle dimensions. Rheometry measurements are presented for densely packed suspensions of spheres and rods with aspect ratios 6 and 9.

Instability and spatiotemporal rheochaos in a shear-thickening fluid model

, 2004
We model a shear-thickening fluid that combines a tendency to form inhomogeneous, shear-banded flows with a slow relaxational dynamics for fluid microstructure.

(Dis)continuous shear thickening in frictionless granular media? [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
Continuous 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 ...

Nonlinear rheology of colloidal dispersions [PDF]

, 2010
Colloidal dispersions are commonly encountered in everyday life and represent an important class of complex fluid. Of particular significance for many commercial products and industrial processes is the ability to control and manipulate the macroscopic ...

Brownian and thermophoresis diffusion effects on magnetohydrodynamic Reiner–Philippoff nanofluid flow past a shrinking sheet

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2023
The aim of this paper is to highlight the output of the investigation on the MHD and radiative flow and thermal characteristics of a non-Newtonian Reiner–Philippoff nanofluid with Brownian and thermophoresis diffusion effects.
