Eulerian simulation of complex suspensions and biolocomotion in three dimensions

We present a numerical method specifically designed for simulating three-dimensional fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems based on the reference map technique (RMT). The RMT is a fully Eulerian FSI numerical method that allows fluids and large-deform ...

Rheological behavior of colloidal suspension with long-range interactions

In this work, we study the constitutive behavior of interacting colloidal suspensions for moderate and high concentrations. Specifically, using a lattice Boltzmann solver, we numerically examine suspensions flowing through narrow channels, and explore the ...

Shear Thickening Fluid Impregnated Foam Composites for Vibration Control and Impact Protection

Mathieu Soutrenon

Highly concentrated suspensions of silica particles present shear thickening properties, shifting from a low to a high viscosity state, instantly and reversibly at a critical shear rate. Their viscosity increases by up to 3 orders of magnitude, changing fr ...

Methods for functionalization of microsized polystyrene beads with titania nanoparticles for cathodic electrophoretic deposition

Stefano Mischler, Johann Michler

Functionalization of colloidal particles based on the use of polyelectrolytes and heterocoagulation was combined with electrophoretic deposition (EPD), with the aim of depositing titania-polystyrene (TiO2-PS) composite particles on Ti6A14V substrates. The ...

Yodel: A Yield Stress Model for Suspensions

Paul Bowen

A model for the yield stress of particulate suspensions is presented that incorporates microstructural parameters taking into account volume fraction of solids, particle size, particle size distribution, maximum packing, percolation threshold, and interpar ...
