The prediction of the strength of the electrorheological (ER) effect is the main concern in a theoretical investigation of ER fluids. The ER effect originates from the induced interaction between the polarized particles in an ER fluid. As the mismatch in material parameters (either conductivities or dielectric constants) is responsible for the ER effects, previous theoretical studies have taken...

Localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) in lithographically fabricated gold (Au) nanodisc pairs are investigated using microabsorption spectroscopy and electrodynamic simulations. In agreement with previous work, we find that the fractional plasmon wavelength shift for polarization along the interparticle axis decays nearly exponentially with the interparticle gap. In addition, we find that...

in this work a glass micromodel which its grains and pores are non-uniform in size, shape and distribution is considered as porous medium. a two-dimensional random network model of micromodel with non-uniform pores has been constructed. the non-uniformity of porous model is achieved by assigning parametric distribution functions to pores throat and pores length, which was measured using image a...

We analyse the successive binding of two species of particles on a onedimensional discrete lattice, where the second variety is deposited only after complete adsorption of the first. We consider the two extreme cases of a perfectly irreversible initial deposition, with non-sliding particles, and that of a fully equilibrated one. For the latter we construct the exact gap distribution from the To...
