While the acoustic properties of solid foams have been abundantly characterized, sound propagation in liquid foams remains poorly understood. Recent studies have investigated the transmission of ultrasound through three-dimensional polydisperse liquid foams (Pierre et al., 2013, 2014, 2017). However, further progress requires to characterize the acoustic response of better controlled foam structures. In this work, we study experimentally the transmission of ultrasounds through a single layer of monodisperse bubbles generated by microfluidics techniques. In such a material, we show that the sound velocity is only sensitive to the gas phase. Nevertheless, the structure of the liquid network has to be taken into account through a transfer parameter analogous to the one in a layer of porous material. Finally, we observe that the attenuation cannot be explained by thermal dissipation alone, but is compatible with viscous dissipation in the gas pores of the monolayer.

We investigate the formation of a two-dimensional quasicrystal in a monodisperse system, using molecular dynamics simulations of hard sphere particles interacting via a two-dimensional square-well potential. We find that more than one stable crystall
ine phase can form for certain values of the square-well parameters. Quenching the liquid phase at a very low temperature, we obtain an amorphous phase. By heating this amorphous phase, we obtain a quasicrystalline structure with five-fold symmetry. From estimations of the Helmholtz potentials of the stable crystalline phases and of the quasicrystal, we conclude that the observed quasicrystal phase can be the stable phase in a specific range of temperatures.
Using an event-driven molecular dynamics simulation, we show that simple monodisperse granular beads confined in coupled columns may oscillate as a new type of granular clock. To trigger this oscillation, the system needs to be driven against gravity
into a density-inverted state, with a high-density clustering phase supported from below by a gas-like low-density phase (Leidenfrost effect) in each column. Our analysis reveals that the density-inverted structure and the relaxation dynamics between the phases can amplify any small asymmetry between the columns, and lead to a giant oscillation. The oscillation occurs only for an intermediate range of the coupling strength, and the corresponding phase diagram can be universally described with a characteristic height of the density-inverted structure. A minimal two-phase model is proposed and linear stability analysis shows that the triggering mechanism of the oscillation can be explained as a switchable two-parameter Hopf bifurcation. Numerical solutions of the model also reproduce similar oscillatory dynamics to the simulation results.
The rheology of pressure-driven flows of two-dimensional dense monodisperse emulsions in neutral wetting microchannels is investigated by means of mesoscopic lattice simulations, capable of handling large collections of droplets, in the order of seve
ral hundreds. The simulations reveal that the fluidization of the emulsion proceeds through a sequence of discrete steps, characterized by yielding events whereby layers of droplets start rolling over each other, thus leading to sudden drops of the relative effective viscosity. It is shown that such discrete fluidization is robust against loss of confinement, namely it persists also in the regime of small ratios of the droplet diameter over the microchannel width. We also develop a simple phenomenological model which predicts a linear relation between the relative effective viscosity of the emulsion and the product of the confinement parameter (global size of the device over droplet radius) and the viscosity ratio between the disperse and continuous phases. The model shows excellent agreement with the numerical simulations. The present work offers new insights to enable the design of microfluidic scaffolds for tissue engineering applications and paves the way to detailed rheological studies of soft-glassy materials in complex geometries.
There was an error in data reduction, resulting in incorrect values for the normal stress differences $N_1$ and $N_2$ shown in Figs. 7-10, and the corrected figures are shown here. In particular, the algebraic sign of $N_1$ is changed, as are the rel
ative magnitudes of $N_1$ and $N_2$. The negative values of $N_1$ for these non-shear-thickening suspensions are larger in magnitude than those reported by other workers, but both $N_1$ and $N_2$ are in general agreement with the accelerated Stokesian Dynamics calculations of Sierou and Brady [1].
We consider a lattice model of a mixture of repulsive, attractive, or neutral monodisperse star (species A) and linear (species B) polymers with a third monomeric species C, which may represent free volume. The mixture is next to a hard, infinite pla
te whose interactions with A and C can be attractive, repulsive, or neutral. These two interactions are the only parameters necessary to specify the effect of the surface on all three components. We numerically study monomer density profiles using the method of Gujrati and Chhajer that has already been previously applied to study polydisperse and monodisperse linear-linear blends next to surfaces. The resulting density profiles always show an enrichment of linear polymers in the immediate vicinity of the surface, due to entropic repulsion of the star core. However, the integrated surface excess of star monomers is sometimes positive, indicating an overall enrichment of stars. This excess increases with the number of star arms only up to a certain critical number and decreases thereafter. The critical arm number increases with compressibility (bulk concentration of C). The method of Gujrati and Chhajer is computationally ultrafast and can be carried out on a PC, even in the incompressible case, when simulations are unfeasible. Calculations of density profiles usually take less than 20 minutes on PCs.
