Mixing a small amount of liquid into a powder can give rise to dry-looking granules; increasing the amount of liquid eventually produces a flowing suspension. We perform experiments on these phenomena using Spheriglass, an industrially-realistic model powder. Drawing on recent advances in understanding friction-induced shear thickening and jamming in suspensions, we offer a unified description of granulation and suspension rheology. A liquid incorporation phase diagram explains the existence of permanent and transient granules and the increase of granule size with liquid content. Our results point to rheology-based design principles for industrial granulation.

Dispersing small particles in a liquid can produce surprising behaviors when the solids fraction becomes large: rapid shearing drives these systems out of equilibrium and can lead to dramatic increases in viscosity (shear-thickening) or even solidifi
cation (shear jamming). These phenomena occur above a characteristic onset stress when particles are forced into frictional contact. Here we show via simulations how this can be understood within a framework that abstracts details of the forces acting at particle-particle contacts into general stress-activated constraints on relative particle movement. We find that focusing on just two constraints, affecting sliding and rolling at contact, can reproduce the experimentally observed shear thickening behavior quantitatively, despite widely different particle properties, surface chemistries, and suspending fluids. Within this framework parameters such as coefficients of sliding and rolling friction can each be viewed as a proxy for one or more forces of different physical or chemical origin, while the parameter magnitudes indicate the relative importance of the associated constraint. In this way, a new link is established that connects features observable in macroscale rheological measurements to classes of constraints arising from micro- or nano-scale properties.
The rheology of suspensions of Brownian, or colloidal, particles (diameter $d lesssim 1$ $mu$m) differs markedly from that of larger grains ($d gtrsim 50$ $mu$m). Each of these two regimes has been separately studied, but the flow of suspensions with
intermediate particle sizes (1 $mutextrm{m} lesssim d lesssim 50$ $mu$m), which occur ubiquitously in applications, remains poorly understood. By measuring the rheology of suspensions of hard spheres with a wide range of sizes, we show experimentally that shear thickening drives the transition from colloidal to granular flow across the intermediate size regime. This insight makes possible a unified description of the (non-inertial) rheology of hard spheres over the full size spectrum. Moreover, we are able to test a new theory of friction-induced shear thickening, showing that our data can be well fitted using expressions derived from it.
The dynamics of an adhesive two-dimensional vesicle doublet under various flow conditions is investigated numerically using a high-order, adaptive-in-time boundary integral method. In a quiescent flow, two nearby vesicles move slowly towards each oth
er under the adhesive potential, pushing out fluid between them to form a vesicle doublet at equilibrium. A lubrication analysis on such draining of a thin film gives the dependencies of draining time on adhesion strength and separation distance that are in good agreement with numerical results. In a planar extensional flow we find a stable vesicle doublet forms only when two vesicles collide head-on around the stagnation point. In a microfluid trap where the stagnation of an extensional flow is dynamically placed in the middle of a vesicle doublet through an active control loop, novel dynamics of a vesicle doublet are observed. Numerical simulations show that there exists a critical extensional flow rate above which adhesive interaction is overcome by the diverging stream, thus providing a simple method to measure the adhesion strength between two vesicle membranes. In a planar shear flow, numerical simulations reveal that a vesicle doublet may form provided that the adhesion strength is sufficiently large at a given vesicle reduced area. Once a doublet is formed, its oscillatory dynamics is found to depend on the adhesion strength and their reduced area. Furthermore the effective shear viscosity of a dilute suspension of vesicle doublets is found to be a function of the reduced area. Results from these numerical studies and analysis shed light on the hydrodynamic and rheological consequences of adhesive interactions between vesicles in a viscous fluid.
We introduce a simple two region model where the diffusion constant in a small region around each step on a vicinal surface can differ from that found on the terraces. Steady state results for this model provide a physically suggestive mapping onto k
inetic coefficients in the conventional sharp-step model, with a negative coefficient arising from faster diffusion in the step region. A linear stability analysis of the resulting sharp-step model provides a unified and simple interpretation of many experimental results for current-induced step bunching and wandering instabilities on both Si(111) and Si(001) surfaces.
Granular media take on great importance in industry and geophysics, posing a severe challenge to materials science. Their response properties elude known soft rheological models, even when the yield-stress discontinuity is blurred by vibro-fluidizati
on. Here we propose a broad rheological scenario where average stress sums up a frictional contribution, generalizing conventional $mu(I)$-rheology, and a kinetic collisional term dominating at fast fluidization. Our conjecture fairly describes a wide series of experiments in a vibrofluidized vane setup, whose phenomenology includes velocity weakening, shear thinning, a discontinuous thinning transition, and gaseous shear thickening. The employed setup gives access to dynamic fluctuations, which exhibit a broad range of timescales. In the slow dense regime the frequency of cage-opening increases with stress and enhances, with respect to $mu(I)$-rheology, the decrease of viscosity. Diffusivity is exponential in the shear stress in both thinning and thickening regimes, with a huge growth near the transition.
