Experimental study of forces between quasi - two - dimensional emulsion droplets near jamming
We experimentally study the jamming of quasi-two-dimensional emulsions. Our experiments consist of oilin-water emulsion droplets confined between two parallel plates. From the droplet outlines, we can determine the forces between every droplet over a wide range of area fractions f. We study three bidisperse samples that jam at area fractions fc z 0.86. Our data show that for f > fc, the contact...
متن کاملExperimental observation of local rearrangements in dense quasi-two-dimensional emulsion flow.
We experimentally study rearranging regions in slow athermal flow by observing the flow of a concentrated oil-in-water emulsion in a thin chamber with a constricting hopper shape. The gap of the chamber is smaller than the droplet diameters, so that the droplets are compressed into quasi-two-dimensional pancakes. We focus on localized rearrangements known as "T1 events" where four droplets exch...
متن کاملDynamic forces between two deformable oil droplets in water.
The understanding of static interactions in colloidal suspensions is well established, whereas dynamic interactions more relevant to biological and other suspended soft-matter systems are less well understood. We present the direct force measurement and quantitative theoretical description for dynamic forces for liquid droplets in another immiscible fluid. Analysis of this system demonstrates t...
متن کاملJamming V: Jamming in two-dimensional packings
We investigate the existence of random close and random loose packing limits in twodimensional packings of monodisperse hard disks. A statistical mechanics approach— based on several approximations to predict the probability distribution of volumes— suggests the existence of the limiting densities of the jammed packings according to their coordination number and compactivity. This result has im...
