We investigate in detail the problem of confined pressure-driven laminar flow of neutrally buoyant non-Brownian suspensions using a frictional rheology based on the recent proposal of Boyer et al., 2011. The friction coefficient and solid…
We probe the rheology of weakly vibrated granular flows as function of flow rate, vibration strength and pressure by performing experiments in a vertically vibrated split-bottom shear cell. For slow flows, we establish the existence of a…
Modeling the transport of deformable capsules under different flow regimens is crucial in a variety of fields, including oil rheology, blood flow and the dispersion of pollutants. The aim of this study is twofold. Firstly, a combined…
We highlight the current state-of-the-art in modeling emulsion rheology, ranging from dilute to jammed dense systems. We focus on analytical and numerical methods developed for calculating, computing, and tracking drop deformation en route…
The formulation of rheological constitutive equations -- models that relate internal stresses and deformations in complex fluids -- is a critical step in the engineering of systems involving soft materials. While data-driven models provide…
Flowing granular materials often abruptly arrest if not driven by sufficient applied stresses. Such abrupt cessation of motion can be economically expensive in industrial materials handling and processing, and is significantly consequential…
The behaviour of dense assemblies of dry grains submitted to continuous shear deformation has been the subject of many experiments and discrete particle simulations. This paper is a collective work carried out among the French research…
In this work, we employ a kinetic theory based approach to predict the hydrodynamic forces on electromechanical resonators operating in gaseous media. Using the Boltzmann-BGK equation, we investigate the influence of the resonator geometry…
Discrete particle simulations are widely used to study large-scale particulate flows in complex geometries where particle-particle and particle-fluid interactions require an adequate representation but the computational cost has to be kept…
We study in this work a steady shearing laminar flow with null heat flux (usually called "uniform shear flow") in a gas-solid suspension at low density. The solid particles are modeled as a gas of smooth hard spheres with inelastic…
Current GPU-accelerated supercomputers promise to enable large-scale simulations of turbulent flows. Lattice Boltzmann Methods (LBM) are particularly well-suited to fulfilling this promise due to their intrinsic compatibility with highly…
The dynamics of rigid particle suspensions in a wall-bounded laminar flow present several non-trivial and intriguing features, including particle ordering, lateral transport, and the appearance of stable, preferential locations like the…
We derive a general dimensionless form for granular locomotion, which is validated in experiments and Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations. The form instructs how to scale size, mass, and driving parameters in order to relate dynamic…
Considering recent results revealing the existence of multi-scale rigid clusters of grains embedded in granular surface flows, i.e. flows down an erodible bed, we describe here the surface flows rheology through a non-local constitutive…
This work presents the Lagrangian entropic lattice Boltzmann method (LELBM), a novel framework for supersonic lattice Boltzmann method that surpasses traditional restrictions on velocity, temperature, viscosity, and memory, resulting in…
We report on experiments that consist in deforming a collection of monodisperse droplets produced by a microfluidic chip through a flow-focusing device. We show that a proper numerical modelling of the flow is necessary to access the stress…
A coarse-grained version of the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method is developed with the intent of enhancing its geometrical flexibility so as to be able to tackle a wider class of flows of engineering interest. To this purpose, the original…
In this paper, the performance of two lattice Boltzmann method formulations for yield-stress (i.e. viscoplastic) fluids has been investigated. The first approach is based on the popular Papanastasiou regularisation of the fluid rheology in…
This paper combines the particle-swap Monte Carlo algorithm with long GPU molecular dynamics simulations to analyze the dynamics of a ternary Lennard-Jones glass-forming liquid in the extremely viscous regime. The focus is on the inherent…
The two most commonly used methods to model the behaviour of granular flows are discrete element and continuum mechanics simulations. These approaches concentrate on the deterministic description of particle or bulk material motion. Unlike…
