We investigate the sedimentation of initially packed paramagnetic particles in presence of a homogeneous external magnetic field, in a Hele-Shaw cell filled with water. Although the magnetic susceptibility of the particles is small and the particle-particle induced magnetic interactions are significantly smaller compared to the gravitational acceleration, we do observe a measurable reduction of the decompaction rate as the amplitude of the applied magnetic field is increased. While induced magnetic dipole-dipole interactions between particles can be either attracting or repulsive depending on the particles relative alignment, our observations reveal an effective overall enhancement of the cohesion of the initial pack of particles due to the induced interactions, very likely promoting internal chain forces in the initial pack of particles. The influence of the magnetic field on the particles once they disperse after being decompacted is on the other hand found to remain marginal.

Small objects floating on a fluid have a tendency to aggregate due to capillary forces. This effect has been used, with the help of a magnetic induction field, to assemble submillimeter metallic spheres into a variety of structures, whose shape and s
ize can be tuned. Under time-varying fields, these assemblies can propel themselves due to a breaking of time reversal symmetry in their adopted shapes. In this article, we study the influence of an in-plane rotation of the magnetic field on these structures. Various rotational modes have been observed with different underlying mechanisms. The magnetic properties of the particles cause them to rotate individually. Dipole-dipole interactions in the assembly can cause the whole structure to align with the field. Finally, non-reciprocal deformations can power the rotation of the assembly. Symmetry plays an important role in the dynamics, as well as the frequency and amplitude of the applied field. Understanding the interplay of these effects is essential, both to explain previous observations and to develop new functions for these assemblies.
We report on the use of magnetic sedimentation as a means to determine the size distribution of dispersed magnetic particles. The particles investigated here are i) single anionic and cationic nanoparticles of diameter D = 7 nm and ii) nanoparticle c
lusters resulting from electrostatic complexation with polyelectrolytes and polyelectrolyte-neutral copolymers. A theoretical expression of the sedimentation concentration profiles at the steady state is proposed and it is found to describe accurately the experimental data. When compared to dynamic light scattering, vibrating sample magnetometry and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, magnetic sedimentation exhibits a unique property : it provides the core size and core size distribution of nanoparticle aggregates.
The effect of a spatially uniform magnetic field on the shear rheology of a dilute emulsion of monodispersed ferrofluid droplets, immersed in a non-magnetizable immiscible fluid, is investigated using direct numerical simulations. The direction of th
e applied magnetic field is normal to the shear flow direction. The droplets extra stress tensor arising from the presence of interfacial forces of magnetic nature is modeled on the basis of the seminal work of G. K. Batchelor, J. Fluid Mech., 41.3 (1970) under the assumptions of a linearly magnetizable ferrofluid phase and negligible inertia. The results show that even relatively small magnetic fields can have significant consequences on the rheological properties of the emulsion due to the magnetic forces that contribute to deform and orient the droplets towards the direction of the applied magnetic vector. In particular, we have observed an increase of the effective (bulk) viscosity and a reversal of the sign of the two normal stress differences with respect to the case without magnetic field for those conditions where the magnetic force prevails over the shearing force. Comparisons between the results of our model with a direct integration of the viscous stress have provided an indication of its reliability to predict the effective viscosity of the suspension. Moreover, this latter quantity has been found to behave as a monotonic increasing function of the applied magnetic field for constant shearing flows (magneto-thickening behaviour), which allowed us to infer a simple constitutive equation describing the emulsion viscosity.
Dynamics of regular clusters of many non-touching particles falling under gravity in a viscous fluid at low Reynolds number are analysed within the point-particle model. Evolution of two families of particle configurations is determined: 2 or 4 regul
ar horizontal polygons (called `rings) centred above or below each other. Two rings fall together and periodically oscillate. Four rings usually separate from each other with chaotic scattering. For hundreds of thousands of initial configurations, a map of the cluster lifetime is evaluated, where the long-lasting clusters are centred around periodic solutions for the relative motions, and surrounded by regions of the chaotic scattering,in a similar way as it was observed by Janosi et al. (1997) for three particles only. These findings suggest to consider the existence of periodic orbits as a possible physical mechanism of the existence of unstable clusters of particles falling under gravity in a viscous fluid.
We report rheological measurements of a noncolloidal particle suspension in a Newtonian solvent at 40% solid volume fraction. An anomalous, frequency-dependent complex viscosity is found under oscillatory shear (OS) flow, whereas a constant dynamic v
iscosity is found under the same shear rates in steady shear (SS) flow. We show that this contradiction arises from the underlying microstructural difference between OS and SS, mediated by weak interparticle forces. Discrete element simulations of proxy particle suspensions confirm this hypothesis and reveal an adhesion-induced, shear thinning mechanism with a -1/5 slope, only in OS, in agreement with experiments.
