Glass transitions and shear thickening suspension rheology
We introduce a class of simple models for shear thickening and/or ‘‘jamming’’ in colloidal suspensions. These are based on the schematic mode coupling theory ~MCT! of the glass transition, having a memory term that depends on a density variable, and on both the shear stress and the shear rate. ~Tensorial aspects of the rheology, such as normal stresses, are ignored for simplicity.! We calculate...
متن کاملstability of shear-thickening and shear-thinning fluids in narrow gap between rotating cylinders
the effect of weak shear thickening and shear thinning on the stability of the taylor-couette flow is explored for a carreau-bird fluid in the narrow-gap limit. the galerkin projection method is used to derive a low-order dynamical system from the conservation of mass and momentum equations. in comparison with the newtonian system, the present equations include additional nonlinear coupling in ...
متن کاملOrigins of Shear Thinning to Shear Thickening Transition in Cement Pastes
Introduction Cement is the most abundantly used man made material on the planet, accounting for a 40 Billion USD market in the US alone [1]. Widespread use of cement includes applications in oil well casings, roadways, buildings, and even as a bone graft technology for the treatment of osteoporosis[2,3]. As cements role as the foundation of our infrastructure broadens, demand for higher strengt...
متن کاملEfficient nematode swimming in a shear thinning colloidal suspension.
The swimming behavior of a nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is investigated in a non-Newtonian shear thinning colloidal suspension. At the onset value (ϕ∼ 8%), the suspension begins to exhibit shear thinning behavior, and the average swimming speed of worms jumps by approximately 12% more than that measured in a Newtonian solution exhibiting no shear dependent viscosity. In the shea...
متن کاملSchematic Mode Coupling Theories for Shear Thinning, Shear Thickening, and Jamming
Mode coupling theory (MCT) appears to explain several, though not all, aspects of the glass transition in colloids (particularly when short-range attractions are present). Developments of MCT, from rational foundations in statistical mechanics, account qualitatively for nonlinear flow behaviour such as the yield stress of a hard-sphere colloidal glass. Such theories so far only predict shear th...
