Dense suspensions of model hard-sphere-like colloids, with different particle sizes, are examined experimentally in the glass state, under shear and extensional rheology. Under steady shear flow we detect Discontinuous Shear Thickening (DST) above a critical shear rate. Start-up shear experiments show stress overshoots in the vicinity of the onset of DST related with a change in microscopic morphology, as the sample shows dilatancy effects. The analysis of the normal stress together with direct sample observation by high speed camera, indicates the appearance of positive N1 and dilation behavior at the shear thickening onset. Dilatancy effects are detected also under extensional flow. The latter was studied through capillary breakup and filament stretching experimental setups, where liquid-like response is seen for strain rate lower than a critical strain rate and solid like-behavior for higher strain rates. Monitoring the filament thinning processes under different conditions (volume fractions and strain rates) we have created a state diagram where all responses of a hard-sphere suspension (Newtonian, shear thinning, shear thickening, dilatant) are shown. We finally compare the shear thickening response of these hard-sphere-like suspensions and glasses in shear with that in extensional flow.
Dense suspensions are non-Newtonian fluids which exhibit strong shear thickening and normal stress differences. Using numerical simulation of extensional and shear flows, we investigate how rheological properties are determined by the microstructure
Discontinuous shear thickening (DST) observed in many dense athermal suspensions has proven difficult to understand and to reproduce by numerical simulation. By introducing a numerical scheme including both relevant hydrodynamic interactions and gran
We present a comprehensive study of the slip and flow of concentrated colloidal suspensions using cone-plate rheometry and simultaneous confocal imaging. In the colloidal glass regime, for smooth, non-stick walls, the solid nature of the suspension c
Transport properties of dense fluids are fundamentally challenging, because the powerful approaches of equilibrium statistical physics cannot be applied. Polar fluids compound this problem, because the long-range interactions preclude the use of a si
The phenomenon of shear-induced jamming is a factor in the complex rheological behavior of dense suspensions. Such shear-jammed states are fragile, i.e., they are not stable against applied stresses that are incompatible with the stress imposed to cr
