Modeling of heterogeneous materials and media is a problem of fundamental importance to
a wide class of phenomena and systems, ranging from condensed matter physics, soft …

Electrorheological (ER) suspensions, typically composed of nonconducting or weakly
conducting particles dispersed in an insulating liquid, undergo dramatic, reversible changes …

Particle Deposition and Aggregation: Measurement, Modelling and Simulation describes
how particle deposition and aggregation can be measured, modeled, and simulated in a …

In the course of viscometric measurements of concentrated suspensions of spheres in
Newtonian fluids using a Couette device, Gadala-Maria & Acrivos (1980) observed a …

The newly developed simulation method known as Stokesian dynamics is used to
investigate the rheological behaviour of concentrated suspensions. Both the detailed …

A general method for computing the hydrodynamic interactions among N suspended
particles, under the condition of vanishingly small particle Reynolds number, is presented …

The non-equilibrium behaviour of concentrated colloidal dispersions is studied using
Stokesian Dynamics, a molecular-dynamics-like simulation technique for analysing …

Numerical simulations are extensively used to investigate the motion of suspended particles
in a fluid and their influence on the dynamics of the overall flow. Contexts range from the …

A new criterion is introduced for the onset of shear thickening in a concentrated dispersion.
The criterion follows from the assumption that shear thickening occurs when the shear forces …

This paper presents three-dimensional numerical simulations of non-Brownian concentrated
suspensions in a Couette flow at zero Reynolds number using a fictitious domain method …
