Kinetic theory of shear thickening for a moderately dense gas-solid suspension: From discontinuous thickening to continuous thickening.
The Enskog kinetic theory for moderately dense gas-solid suspensions under simple shear flow is considered as a model to analyze the rheological properties of the system. The influence of the environmental fluid on solid particles is modeled via a viscous drag force plus a stochastic Langevin-like term. The Enskog equation is solved by means of two independent but complementary routes: (i) Grad...
متن کاملDiscontinuous shear thickening of frictional hard-sphere suspensions.
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 granularlike contacts, we show that contact friction is essential for having DST. Above a critical volume fraction, we observe the existence of two sta...
متن کاملDiscontinuous shear thickening without inertia in dense non-Brownian suspensions.
A consensus is emerging that discontinuous shear thickening (DST) in dense suspensions marks a transition from a flow state where particles remain well separated by lubrication layers, to one dominated by frictional contacts. We show here that reasonable assumptions about contact proliferation predict two distinct types of DST in the absence of inertia. The first occurs at densities above the j...
متن کاملDiscontinuous shear thickening in Brownian suspensions by dynamic simulation.
Dynamic particle-scale numerical simulations are used to show that the shear thickening observed in dense colloidal, or Brownian, suspensions is of a similar nature to that observed in noncolloidal suspensions, i.e., a stress-induced transition from a flow of lubricated near-contacting particles to a flow of a frictionally contacting network of particles. Abrupt (or discontinuous) shear thicken...
متن کاملShear-Thickening Fluid
Shear-Thickening Fluids (STFs) are a special Non-Newtonian Fluid that act like a solid when they experience a force. A simple example of this is a mixture of cornstarch and water. In this experiment, I text this mixture’s STF properties by using a ball drop to simulate an impact. By varying the ball drop height (and thus the force upon impact), and observing the bounce height, I determined wher...
