Long-chained surfactant solutions have found widespread use in the oil and gas industry due to a host of attractive properties. In this paper, we characterize one such commercially used viscoelastic surfactant that forms a wormlike micellar…
Magnetic rotational spectroscopy is based on the use of magnetic micron-size wires for viscosity measurements. Submitted to a rotational magnetic field with increasing frequency, the wires undergo a hydrodynamic instability between a…
We use a hybrid method that combines the Multiparticle collision dynamics (MPCD) for solvent particles with the molecular dynamics for equilibrium polymers to simulate the shearing of the equilibrium polymers (or Wormlike micelles) at a…
The frequency dependence of third-harmonic medium amplitude oscillatory shear (MAOS) modulus $G_{33}^{*}(\omega)$ provides insight into material behavior and microstructure in the asymptotically nonlinear regime. Motivated by the difficulty…
We introduce \emph{ReMatching}, a novel shape correspondence solution based on the functional maps framework. Our method, by exploiting a new and appropriate \emph{re}-meshing paradigm, can target shape-\emph{matching} tasks even on meshes…
Semantic overlap among land-cover categories, highly imbalanced label distributions, and complex inter-class co-occurrence patterns constitute significant challenges for multi-label remote-sensing image retrieval. In this article,…
It is often said that well-entangled and fast-breaking living polymers (such as wormlike micelles) exhibit a single relaxation time in their reptation dynamics, but the full story is somewhat more complicated. Understanding departures from…
The mechanics of biological tissues mainly proceeds from the cell cortex rheology. A direct, explicit link between cortex rheology and tissue rheology remains lacking, yet would be instrumental in understanding how modulations of cortical…
Morphogenesis involves complex shape changes of biological tissues. Yet, tissue shape changes depend on tissue rheology, which in turn arises from the interplay of large numbers of cells. Here, we link cell- and tissue-scale mechanics by…
Soft particulate gels can reversibly yield when sufficient deformation is applied, and the characteristics of this transition can be enhanced or limited by designing hybrid hydrogel composites. While the microscopic dynamics and macroscopic…
The concept of a `persistent worm' is introduced, representing the smallest possible length of a wormlike micelle, and modelled by a bead-spring chain with sticky beads at the ends. Persistent worms are allowed to combine with each other at…
Unentangled wormlike micelle solutions relax stress through a dynamic interplay of reversible scission and intrachain relaxation involving a hierarchy of molecular timescales whose relationship to linear viscoelastic response remains…
We develop and test methods that include second and third-order perturbation theory (MP3) using orbitals obtained from regularized orbital-optimized second-order perturbation theory, $\kappa$-OOMP2, denoted as MP3:$\kappa$-OOMP2. Testing…
Numerical investigation of compressible flows faces two main challenges. In order to accurately describe the flow characteristics, high-resolution nonlinear numerical schemes are needed to capture discontinuities and resolve wide…
Many wormlike micellar systems exhibit appreciable shear thinning due to shear induced alignment. As the micelles get aligned introducing directionality in the system, the viscoelastic properties are no longer expected to be isotropic. An…
We characterize the scale-dependent rheological properties of mucus from the Chaetopterus marine worm and determine the intrinsic lengthscales controlling distinct rheological and structural regimes. Mucus produced by this ubiquitous filter…
We present large scale computer simulations of the nonlinear bulk rheology of lamellar phases (smectic liquid crystals) at moderate to large values of the shear rate (Peclet numbers 10-100), in both two and three dimensions. In two…
A mesoscopic model of a diblock copolymer is used to study the stability of a uniform lamellar phase under a reciprocating shear flow. Approximate viscosity contrast between the microphases is allowed through a linear dependence of the…
In order to investigate the rheological properties of viscoelastic fluids by mesoscopic hydrodynamics methods, we develop a multi-particle collision dynamics (MPC) model for a fluid of harmonic dumbbells. The algorithm consists of…
We present a new nonlinear dimensionality reduction method, MAPLE, that enhances UMAP by improving manifold modeling. MAPLE employs a self-supervised learning approach to more efficiently encode low-dimensional manifold geometry. Central to…
