The deformation and flow of disordered solids, such as metallic glasses and concentrated
emulsions, involves swift localized rearrangements of particles that induce a long-range …

A comprehensive review is presented of the physical behavior of yield stress materials in
soft condensed matter, which encompasses a broad range of materials from colloidal …

Yield stress fluids are encountered in a wide range of applications: toothpastes, cements,
mortars, foams, muds, mayonnaise, etc. The fundamental character of these fluids is that …

Even in simple geometries, many complex fluids display nontrivial flow fields, with regions
where shear is concentrated. The possibility for such shear banding has been known for …

Containing contributions from leading academic and industrial researchers, this book
provides a much needed update of foam science research. The first section of the book …

In the last two decades, advances in synthetic, experimental and modeling/simulation
methodologies have considerably enhanced our understanding of colloidal suspension …

We review the recent literature on the simulation of the structure and deformation of
amorphous solids, including oxide and metallic glasses. We consider simulations at different …

Liquid foams, as colloidal systems comprising a dispersed gas phase within a continuous
liquid medium, exhibit unique structural and rheological properties beneficial for various …

Materials such as foams, concentrated emulsions, dense suspensions or colloidal gels, are
yield stress fluids. Their steady flow behavior, characterized by standard rheometric …

Stress-induced fluidization of a simple yield stress fluid, namely a carbopol microgel, is
addressed through extensive rheological measurements coupled to simultaneous …
