Surface roughness affects many properties of colloids, from depletion and capillary
interactions to their dispersibility and use as emulsion stabilizers. It also impacts particle …

We investigate the coupling between the interstitial medium and granular particles by
studying the hopper flow of dry and submerged systems experimentally and numerically. In …

The phenomenon of discontinuous shear thickening (DST) is observed in suspensions of
solid particles with a very high-volume fraction. For suspensions of ferromagnetic particles …

The rheology of suspensions showing discontinuous shear thickening (DST) is well
documented in conventional rheometer with rotating tools, but their study in capillary flow is …

Segregation of sand grains is often detected in reclamation lands constructed by hydraulic
dredging activities using various placement methods, such as bottom dum**, rainbowing …

We present a high-fidelity simulation model for dense suspensions of spherical and non-
spherical particles suspended in a Lattice–Boltzmann Method (LBM) based fluid. The non …

Macroscopic frictional behavior of granular materials is of great importance for studying
several complex problems associated with fault slip and landslides. The main objective of …

In this paper the Discrete Element Method (DEM) is coupled with the Lattice-Boltzmann
Method (LBM) to model the undrained condition of dense granular media that display …

The discrete element method (DEM), a discontinuum-based method to simulate the
interaction between neighbouring particles of granular materials, suffers from intensive …

Rheological properties of suspensions are influenced by changes in the particle's or
suspending medium's traits. Due to the ability of water and cornstarch to develop strong …
