The properties of semiflexible polymers tethered by one end to an impenetrable wall and exposed to oscillatory shear flow are investigated by mesoscale simulations. A polymer, confined in two dimensions, is described by a linear bead-spring…
We report an experimental investigation of the transition from a hexagonally ordered solid phase to a disordered liquid in a monolayer of vibrated spheres. The transition occurs as the intensity of the vibration amplitude is increased.…
Acoustic cavitation bubbles are known to exhibit highly nonlinear and unpredictable chaotic dynamics. Their inevitable role in applications like sonoluminescence, sonochemistry and medical procedures suggests that their dynamics be…
In rotating fluids, the viscous smoothing of inviscid singular inertial waves leads to the formation of internal shear layers. In previous works, we analysed the internal shear layers excited by a viscous forcing (longitudinal libration) in…
We use a custom shear cell coupled to an optical microscope to investigate at the particle level the yielding transition in concentrated emulsions subjected to an oscillatory shear deformation. By performing experiments lasting thousands of…
We numerically study confined channel foam flow around an obstacle using a two-dimensional bubble model, inspired by experiments performed in the same geometry. We systematically vary the polydispersity, the external driving force, and the…
We study the two-dimensional (2D) shear flow of amorphous solids within variants of an elastoplastic model, paying particular attention to spatial correlations and time fluctuations of, e.g., local stresses. The model is based on the local…
We investigate experimentally the diffusion properties of a bidimensional bidisperse dry granular material under quasistatic cyclic shear.The comparison of these properties with results obtained both in computer simulations of hard spheres…
It is well-known that granular mixtures that differ in size or shape segregate when sheared. In the past, two mechanisms have been proposed to describe this effect, and it is unclear if both exist. To settle this question, we consider a…
We investigate bubble deformations in an homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flow by means of direct numerical simulations of a single bubble in turbulence. We examine interface deformations by decomposing the local radius into the…
We have designed and constructed an experimental system to study gas bubble growth in slightly supersatu- rated liquids. This is achieved by working with carbon dioxide dissolved in water, pressurized at a maximum of 1 MPa and applying a…
Shearing with a finite shear rate a compressed granular system results in a region of grains flowing over a compact, static assembly. Perforce this region is dilated to a degree that depends on the shear rate, the loading pressure, gravity,…
Studies on finite-size plasma have attracted a lot of attention lately. They can form by ionizing liquid droplets by lasers. The dynamical behavior of such plasma droplets is, therefore, a topic of significant interest. In particular,…
Bubbles made of smectic liquid crystals (LC) can display buckling and wrinkling. These deformations are induced in the course of the relaxation of an elongated bubble towards a sphere. The bubbles are created through the collapse of a…
A mesoscopic model of a diblock copolymer is used to study the motion of a grain boundary separating two regions of perfectly ordered lamellar structures under an oscillatory but uniform shear flow. The case considered is a grain boundary…
The process of bubble formation from an orifice submerged in liquid with constant gas flow is studied by numerical simulations using an OpenFOAM volume-of-fluid solver named interIsoFoam. The computed results show that the detached bubble…
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we show that a simple model of a glassy material exhibits the shear localization phenomenon observed in many complex fluids. At low shear rates, the system separates into a fluidized shear-band and an…
A Molecular Dynamics approach has been used to compute the shear force resulting from the shearing of disks. Two-dimensional monodisperse disks have been put in an horizontal and rectangular shearing cell with periodic boundary conditions…
As small particles skim our airways during breathing, or our intestines during digestion, the surface epithelium is subjected to local exogenous shear that deforms hundreds to thousands of tightly interacting cells. Unlike shear…
The dynamics of cavitation bubbles in the vicinity of a solid cylinder or fibre are seen in water treatment, demolition and/or cleaning of composite materials, as well as bio-medical scenarios such as ultrasound-induced bubbles near the…
