Creep and fluidity of a real granular packing near jamming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We study the internal dynamical processes taking place in a granular packing below yield stress. At all packing fractions and down to vanishingly low applied shear, a logarithmic creep is evidenced. The experiments are analyzed under the scope of a visco-

Reproducible mini-slump test procedure for measuring the yield stress of cementitious pastes

open access: yesMaterials Structure, 2017
The mini-slump test is a fast, inexpensive and widely adopted method for evaluating the workability of fresh cementitious pastes. However, this method lacks a standardised procedure for its experimental implementation, which is crucial to guarantee ...

Yield Stress Materials in Soft Condensed Matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A comprehensive review is presented of the physical behavior of yield stress materials in soft condensed matter, which encompasses a broad range of materials from colloidal assemblies and gels to emulsions and non-Brownian suspensions.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Simultaneous Effects of Heat Transfer and Variable Viscosity on Peristaltic Transport of Casson Fluid Flow in an Inclined Porous Tube

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2019
The present study investigates the combined effects of varying viscosity and heat transfer on a Casson fluid through an inclined porous axisymmetric tube in the presence of slip effects.

Yielding and irreversible deformation below the microscale: Surface effects and non-mean-field plastic avalanches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nanoindentation techniques recently developed to measure the mechanical response of crystals under external loading conditions reveal new phenomena upon decreasing sample size below the microscale.

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Nontrivial rheological exponents in sheared yield stress fluids

open access: yes, 2017
In this work we discuss possible physical origins for non-trivial exponents in the athermal rheology of soft materials at low but finite driving rates. A key ingredient in our scenario is the presence of a self-consistent mechanical noise that stems from

Yield and Environmental Stress

open access: yesHortScience, 1988
Abstract Plant development is affected by physical stresses of all kinds. The most sensitive time is during anthesis and early fruit growth, when reproductive structures may fail to develop or embryos may abort. Water limitation can cause both effects, and explanatory theories are based on turgor, photosynthate availability, or hormonal relationships ...

Impact of water deficit stress in maize: Phenology and yield components

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Fifteen million farmers in India engaged in Maize cultivation. India would require 45 MMT of Maize by 2022. But, only 15% of cultivated area of maize is under irrigation and water shortage has been a challenge for sustainability of maize production ...
