Propagation of hydrodynamic interactions in colloidal suspensions.

چکیده
We describe direct measurements of the dynamics of two colloidal spheres before hydrodynamic interactions have had time to fully develop. We find that the dynamics of the two spheres are coupled at times significantly shorter than tau(nu), the time required for vorticity to diffuse between the two spheres. From the distance dependence of the measured coupling, we infer that hydrodynamic interactions develop in a sonic time scale.

Simulation method of colloidal suspensions with hydrodynamic interactions: fluid particle dynamics
We develop a new simulation method of colloidal suspensions, which we call a "fluid particle dynamics" (FPD) method. This FPD method, which treats a colloid as a fluid particle, removes the difficulties stemming from a solid-fluid boundary condition in the treatment of hydrodynamic interactions between the particles. The importance of interparticle hydrodynamic interactions in the aggregation p...
متن کاملMicro-mechanics of electrostatically stabilized suspensions of cellulose nanofibrils under steady state shear flow.
In this study, we characterized and modeled the rheology of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibril (NFC) aqueous suspensions with electrostatically stabilized and unflocculated nanofibrous structures. These colloidal suspensions of slender and wavy nanofibers exhibited a yield stress and a shear thinning behavior at low and high shear rates, respectively. Both the shear yield stress and the consis...
متن کاملEffective screening of hydrodynamic interactions in charged colloidal suspensions.
We investigate the hydrodynamic interaction in suspensions of charged colloidal silica spheres. The volume fraction as well as the range of the electrostatic repulsion between the spheres is varied. Using a combination of dynamic x-ray scattering, cross-correlated dynamic light scattering, and small angle x-ray scattering, the hydrodynamic function H(q) is determined experimentally. The effecti...
متن کاملAggregation in colloidal suspensions: effect of colloidal forces and hydrodynamic interactions.
The forces acting in colloidal suspensions and affecting their stability and aggregation kinetics are considered. The approximations used for these forces in numerical simulations and the importance of the balanced account for both colloidal forces and hydrodynamic interactions are discussed. As an example the results of direct numerical simulations of kinetics of aggregation either with accoun...
متن کاملA Navier-Stokes phase-field crystal model for colloidal suspensions.
We develop a fully continuous model for colloidal suspensions with hydrodynamic interactions. The Navier-Stokes Phase-Field Crystal model combines ideas of dynamic density functional theory with particulate flow approaches and is derived in detail and related to other dynamic density functional theory approaches with hydrodynamic interactions. The derived system is numerically solved using adap...
