We systematically investigated the impact of boundary confinement on the shear-thickening
rheology of dense granular suspensions. Under highly confined conditions, dense …

We experimentally investigated the role of boundary confinements in shear thickening
suspensions. Unexpected rheological responses were observed across multiple length …

The rheology of dense suspensions in the viscous regime can be characterized by the
viscous number J and granular flows by the inertia number I⁠, both relating the shear rate γ …

Shear thickening in dense particulate suspensions was recently proposed to be driven by
the activation of friction above an onset stress needed to overcome repulsive forces between …

We introduce a novel approach to reveal ordering fluctuations in sheared dense
suspensions, using line scanning in a combined rheometer and laser scanning confocal …

We study the rheological behavior of concentrated granular suspensions of simple spherical
particles. Under controlled stress, the system exhibits an S-shaped flow curve (stress vs …

Discontinuous shear thickening and dynamic shear jamming can be observed in the dense
granular suspension. Here, we determine the criterion for the occurrence of shear jamming …

Dense suspensions are non-Newtonian fluids that exhibit strong shear thickening and
normal stress differences. Using numerical simulation of extensional and shear flows, we …

When subjected to shear, granular suspensions exhibit normal stresses perpendicular to the
shear plane but the magnitude and sign of the different components of the normal stresses …

Hypothesis The viscosity of dense suspensions surges when the applied stress surpasses a
material-specific critical threshold. There is growing evidence that the thickening transition …
