Competing Timescales Lead to Oscillations in Shear-Thickening Suspensions
Competing timescales generate novelty. Here, we show that a coupling between the timescales imposed
by instrument inertia and the formation of interparticle frictional contacts in shear-thickening suspensions
leads to ...
The role of friction in the yielding of adhesive non-Brownian suspensions
Yielding behavior is well known in attractive colloidal suspensions. Adhesive non-Brownian suspensions, in which the interparticle bonds are due to finite-size contacts, also show yielding behavior. We use a combination ...
Turning a yield-stress calcite suspension into a shear-thickening one by tuning inter-particle friction
We show that a suspension of non-Brownian calcite particles in glycerol-water mixtures can be tuned continuously from being a yield-stress suspension to a shear-thickening suspension without a measurable yield stress by ...
