This work aimed to mathematically model the glass transition temperature (Tg), one of the most important parameters regarding the behavior of slag, responsible for the sudden change in thermomechanical properties of non-crystalline…
We present a shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theoretical analysis of molecular-dynamics simulations of a rapidly sheared metallic glass. These simulations are especially revealing because, although they are limited to high strain rates,…
This paper investigates the relationship between extensional and shear viscosity of low-viscosity power-law fluids. We show the first experimental evidence of the conditions satisfying the same power exponents for extensional and shear…
We suggest a scalar model for deformation and flow of an amorphous material such as a foam or an emulsion. To describe elastic, plastic and viscous behaviours, we use three scalar variables: elastic deformation, plastic deformation rate and…
Being beneficial for the amplitude modulation of the pump laser, we propose a simple yet surprisingly effective mechanical squeezing scheme in a standard optomechanical system. By merely introducing a specific kind of periodic modulation…
Accurate measurement of gravitational shear from images of distant galaxies is one of the most direct ways of studying the distribution of mass in the universe. We describe an implementation of a technique that is based on the shapelets…
The detectors of the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory (LIGO) are broadly limited by the quantum noise and rely on the injection of squeezed states of light to achieve their full sensitivity. Squeezing improvement is…
We perform a two-dimensional molecular-dynamics study of a model for sheared bidisperse granular systems under conditions of simple shear and Poiseuille flow. We propose a mechanism for particle-size segregation based on the observation…
A method based on the simple shear flow modified by the introduction of a deterministic non-conservative force and a stochastic process is proposed to measure the Navier-Stokes shear viscosity in a granular fluid described by the Enskog…
We combine the shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory of amorphous plasticity with Edwards' statistical theory of granular materials to describe shear flow in a disordered system of thermalized hard spheres. The equations of motion for this…
We study the rheology of dry and wet granular materials in the steady quasistatic regime using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) in a split-bottom ring shear cell with focus on the macroscopic friction. The aim of our study is to understand…
We report initial NMR studies of continuous flow laser-polarized xenon gas, both in unrestricted tubing, and in a model porous media. The study uses Pulsed Gradient Spin Echo-based techniques in the gas-phase, with the aim of obtaining more…
We report contactless measurements of the viscoelastic rheological properties of soft gels. The experiments are performed using a colloidal-probe Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) in a liquid environment and in dynamic mode. The mechanical…
The viscoelastic behavior of polymer solutions is commonly measured using oscillating shear rheometry, however, the accuracy of such methods is limited by the oscillating frequency of the equipment and since the relaxation time of the…
Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) describes a suite of techniques for characterising electronic systems, with applications in physics, materials science, chemistry, and biology. However, the requirement for large electron spin ensembles in…
Using molecular dynamics simulation, we study acoustic resonance in low-temperature glass by applying a small periodic shear at a boundary wall. Shear wave resonance occurs as the frequency $\omega$ approaches $\omega_\ell= \pi…
The rheology of a granular shear flow is studied in a quasi-2d rotating cylinder. Measurements are carried out near the midpoint along the length of the surface flowing layer where the flow is steady and non-accelerating. Streakline…
The shear viscosity of a gluon gas is calculated using the Green-Kubo relation. Time correlations of the energy-momentum tensor in thermal equilibrium are extracted from microscopic simulations using a parton cascade solving various…
Neglecting the second order corrections in weak lensing measurements can lead to a few percent uncertainties on cosmic shears, and becomes more important for cluster lensing mass reconstructions. Existing methods which claim to measure the…
The aim of this paper is to present a modeling for the rheological behavior of simple liquids as a function of the amplitude of the imposed shear stress or strain. The elastic mode theory (Ref. 6) is first generalized to take into account…
