How a colloidal paste flows

We have developed a novel computational scheme that allows direct numerical simulation of the mechanical behavior of sticky granular matter under stress. We present here the general method, with particular emphasis on the particle features at the nanometric scale. It is demonstrated that, although sticky granular material is quite complex and is a good example of a challenging computational pro...

Extradural application of bismuth iodoform paraffin paste causing relapsing bismuth encephalopathy: a case report with CT and MRI studies.
