Non-Newtonian transport properties of an inertial suspension of inelastic rough hard spheres under simple shear flow are determined from the Boltzmann kinetic equation. The influence of the interstitial gas on rough hard spheres is modeled via a Fokker-Planck generalized equation for rotating spheres accounting for the coupling of both the translational and rotational degrees of freedom of grains with the background viscous gas. The generalized Fokker-Planck term is the sum of two ordinary Fokker-Planck differential operators in linear $mathbf{v}$ and angular $boldsymbol{omega}$ velocity space. As usual, each Fokker-Planck operator is constituted by a drag force term (proportional to $mathbf{v}$ and/or $boldsymbol{omega}$) plus a stochastic Langevin term defined in terms of the background temperature $T_text{ex}$. The Boltzmann equation is solved by two different but complementary approaches: (i) by means of Grads moment method, and (ii) by using a Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK)-type kinetic model adapted to inelastic rough hard spheres. As occurs in the case of emph{smooth} inelastic hard spheres, our results show that both the temperature and the non-Newtonian viscosity increase drastically with increasing the shear rate (discontinuous shear thickening effect) while the fourth-degree velocity moments also exhibit an $S$-shape. In particular, while high levels of roughness may slightly attenuate the jump of the viscosity in comparison to the smooth case, the opposite happens for the rotational temperature. As an application of these results, a linear stability analysis of the steady simple shear flow solution is also carried out showing that there are regions of the parameter space where the steady solution becomes linearly unstable.

The Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell models is considered to determine the rheological properties in a granular binary mixture in the simple shear flow state. The transport coefficients (shear viscosity and viscometric functions) are {em exac tly} evaluated in terms of the coefficients of restitution, the (reduced) shear rate and the parameters of the mixture (particle masses, diameters and concentration). The results show that in general, for a given value of the coefficients of restitution, the above transport properties decrease with increasing shear rate.
Considering a granular fluid of inelastic smooth hard spheres we discuss the conditions delineating the rheological regimes comprising Newtonian, Bagnoldian, shear thinning, and shear thickening behavior. Developing a kinetic theory, valid at finite shear rates and densities around the glass transition density, we predict the viscosity and Bagnold coefficient at practically relevant values of the control parameters. The determination of full flow curves relating the shear stress $sigma$ to the shear rate $dotgamma$, and predictions of the yield stress complete our discussion of granular rheology derived from first principles.
Atomic correlations in a simple liquid in steady-state flow under shear stress were studied by molecular dynamics simulation. The local atomic level strain was determined through the anisotropic pair-density function (PDF). The atomic level strain ha s a limited spatial extension whose range is dependent on the strain rate and extrapolates to zero at the critical strain rate. A failure event is identified with altering the local topology of atomic connectivity by exchanging bonds among neighboring atoms.
A concentrated, vertical monolayer of identical spherical squirmers, which may be bottom-heavy, and which are subjected to a linear shear flow, is modelled computationally by two different methods: Stokesian dynamics, and a lubrication-theory-based m ethod. Inertia is negligible. The aim is to compute the effective shear viscosity and, where possible, the normal stress differences as functions of the areal fraction of spheres $phi$, the squirming parameter $beta$ (proportional to the ratio of a squirmers active stresslet to its swimming speed), the ratio $Sq$ of swimming speed to a typical speed of the shear flow, the bottom-heaviness parameter $G_{bh}$, the angle $alpha$ that the shear flow makes with the horizontal, and two parameters that define the repulsive force that is required computationally to prevent the squirmers from overlapping when their distance apart is less than a critical value $epsilon a$, where $epsilon$ is very small and $a$ is the sphere radius. The Stokesian dynamics method allows the rheological quantities to be computed for values of $phi$ up to $0.75$; the lubrication-theory method can be used for $phi> 0.5$. A major finding of this work is that, despite very different assumptions, the two methods of computation give overlapping results for viscosity as a function of $phi$ in the range $0.5 < phi < 0.75$. This suggests that lubrication theory, based on near-field interactions alone, contains most of the relevant physics, and that taking account of interactions with more distant particles than the nearest is not essential to describe the dominant physics.
The Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell models is considered to determine the velocity moments through fourth degree in the simple shear flow state. First, the rheological properties (which are related to the second-degree velocity moments) are {em exactly} evaluated in terms of the coefficient of restitution $alpha$ and the (reduced) shear rate $a^*$. For a given value of $alpha$, the above transport properties decrease with increasing shear rate. Moreover, as expected, the third-degree and the asymmetric fourth-degree moments vanish in the long time limit when they are scaled with the thermal speed. On the other hand, as in the case of elastic collisions, our results show that, for a given value of $alpha$, the scaled symmetric fourth-degree moments diverge in time for shear rates larger than a certain critical value $a_c^*(alpha)$ which decreases with increasing dissipation. The explicit shear-rate dependence of the fourth-degree moments below this critical value is also obtained.
