We study the interplay of activity, order and flow through a set of coarse-grained equations governing the hydrodynamic velocity, concentration and stress fields in a suspension of active, energy-dissipating particles. We make several…
The rheology of a 3-dimensional granular system consisting of frictional elongated particles was investigated by means of discrete element model (DEM) calculations. A homogenous shear flow of frictional spherocyliders was simulated, and a…
A new method for rheologically homogenizing a dilute suspension composed of freely-suspended spherical particles dispersed in a Newtonian fluid is presented: The ensemble-averaged velocity and stress fields obtained for the…
The manipulation and control of microparticles through non-intrusive methods is pivotal in biomedical applications such as cell sorting and cell focusing. Although several experimental and numerical studies have been dedicated to single…
In this paper a problem of stationary flow of generalized Newtonian fluid in a thin channel is considered. An efficient algorithm of solution is proposed that includes a flexible procedure for a continuous approximation of the apparent…
Rheological properties of dense flows of hard particles are singular as one approaches the jamming threshold where flow ceases, both for aerial granular flows dominated by inertia, and for over-damped suspensions. Concomitantly, the…
Colloids may be treated as `big atoms' so that they are good models for atomic and molecular systems. Colloidal hard disks are therefore good models for 2d materials and although their phase behavior is well characterized, rheology has…
Understanding the dynamics of fluid-driven sediment transport remains challenging, as it is an intermediate region between a granular material and a fluid flow. Boyer \textit{et al.}\citep{Boyer2011} proposed a local rheology unifying dense…
The purpose of this study is to develop a model for the flow of suspensions consisting of Herschel-Bulkley fluid mixed with spherical particles. In particular, the focus is to investigate the effect of non- Newtonian rheology of the…
We consider a coupled system consisting of a kinetic equation coupled to a macroscopic Stokes (or Navier-Stokes) equation and describing the motion of a suspension of rigid rods in gravity. A reciprocal coupling leads to the formation of…
We investigate the rheology of granular materials via molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous, simple shear flows of soft, frictional, noncohesive spheres. In agreement with previous results for frictionless particles, we observe…
We present a systematic procedure for analyzing cumulants to arbitrary order in the context of heavy-ion collisions. It generalizes and improves existing procedures in many respects. In particular, particles which are correlated are allowed…
Shear flow of dense, non-Brownian suspensions is simulated using the discrete element method, taking particle contact and hydrodynamic lubrication into account. The resulting flow regimes are mapped in the parametric space of solid volume…
We are interested in a reduced order method for the efficient simulation of blood flow in arteries. The blood dynamics is modeled by means of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our algorithm is based on an approximated…
We consider the aeroelastic simulation of flexible mechanical structures submerged in subsonic fluid flows at low Mach numbers. The nonlinear kinematics of flexible bodies are described in the total Lagrangian formulation and discretized by…
Understanding the rheology of granular assemblies is important for natural and engineering systems, but the relationship between inter-particle friction (or microscopic friction) and macroscopic friction is still not well understood. In…
We experimentally revisite the flow down an inclined plane of dense granular suspensions, with particles of sizes in the micron range, for which thermal fluctuations cannot be ignored. Using confocal microscopy on a miniaturized set-up, we…
Multi-phase flows encountered in nature or in industry, exhibit non trivial rheological properties, that can be understood better thanks to model materials and appropriate rheometers. Here, we use model unsaturated granular materials:…
The irreversible behavior of a highly confined non-Brownian suspension of spherical particles at low Reynolds number in a Newtonian fluid is studied experimentally and numerically. In experiment, the suspension is confined in a thin…
In this paper, we present a novel Newton-based extremum seeking controller for the solution of multivariable model-free optimization problems in static maps. Unlike existing asymptotic and fixed-time results in the literature, we present a…
