We study, by computer simulations, the role of different dissipation forces on the rheological properties of highly-dense particle-laden flows. In particular, we are interested in the close-packing limit (jamming) and the question if universal observables can be identified that do not depend on the details of the dissipation model. To this end, we define a simplified lubrication force and systematically vary the range $h_c$ of this interaction. For fixed $h_c$ a cross-over is seen from a Newtonian flow regime at small strain rates to inertia-dominated flow at larger strain rates. The same cross-over is observed as a function of the lubrication range $h_c$. At the same time, but only at high densities close to jamming, particle velocity as well as local density distributions are unaffected by changes in the lubrication range -- they are candidates for universal behavior. At densities away from jamming, this universality is lost: short-range lubrication forces lead to pronounced particle clustering, while longer-ranged lubrication does not. These findings highlight the importance of geometric packing constraints for particle motion -- independent of the specific dissipation model. With the free volume vanishing at random-close packing, particle motion is more and more constrained by the ever smaller amount of free space. On the other side, macroscopic rheological observables, as well as higher-order correlation functions retain the variability of the underlying dissipation model.
Rheological properties of a dense granular material consisting of frictionless spheres are investigated. It is found that the shear stress, the pressure, and the kinetic temperature obey critical scaling near the jamming transition point, which is co
We investigate the rheological properties of an assembly of inelastic (but frictionless) particles close to the jamming density using numerical simulation, in which uniform steady states with a constant shear rate $dotgamma$ is realized. The system b
We study the vibrational modes of three-dimensional jammed packings of soft ellipsoids of revolution as a function of particle aspect ratio $epsilon$ and packing fraction. At the jamming transition for ellipsoids, as distinct from the idealized case
For optimal application, pressure-sensitive adhesives must have rheological properties in between those of a viscoplastic solid and those of a viscoelastic liquid. Such adhesives can be produced by emulsion polymerisation, resulting in latex particle
Fluctuations in a model of a sheared, zero-temperature foam are studied numerically. Five different quantities that reduce to the true temperature in an equilibrium thermal system are calculated. All five have the same shear-rate dependence, and thre
