Rigidity in Frictional Particle Packings and Dynamics in Living Polymeric Packings
… acts. The first act encapsulates a study of the rigidity transition in frictional particle packings, or how a packing goes from floppy-to-rigid as its particle density increases, for example. While consensus has emerged regarding the nature of the rigidity transition in frictionless packings, …

Designing devices using electro-active yield stress fluids
… us to precisely extrapolate the conductivity and rigidity percolation thresholds of the carbon black gels. Large amplitude oscillatory shear measurements are also shown to be a useful method to study fatigue in carbon black gels at stresses close to the yield stress. Finally, we introduce a new …
