Predicting the morphodynamics of sedimentary landscapes due to fluvial and aeolian flows
requires answering the following questions: Is the flow strong enough to initiate sediment …

The effective control of droplet coalescence and impact behaviors on solid surfaces plays a
crucial role in various fields, such as material science, environmental science, energy …

The flowing, jamming, and avalanche behavior of granular materials is satisfyingly universal
and vexingly hard to tune: A granular flow is typically intermittent and will irremediably jam if …

A hallmark of concentrated suspensions is non-Newtonian behavior, whereby the viscosity
increases dramatically once a characteristic shear rate or stress is exceeded. Such strong …

The high‐speed impact‐resistanct materials are of great significance while their
development is hindered by the intrinsic tradeoff between mechanical strength and energy …

Granular dynamics govern earthquakes, avalanches, and landslides and are of fundamental
importance in a variety of industries ranging from energy to pharmaceuticals to agriculture …

Exploiting interfacial excess (Γ), Laplace pressure jump (ΔP), surface work, and coupling
them to surface reactivity have led to the synthesis of undercooled metal particles …

Liquid-phase sintering is advantageous compared to solid-state sintering in manufacturing
ceramic composites including lightweight armors. The crystalline phases formed from the …

Shear jamming (SJ) occurs for frictional granular materials with packing fractions ϕ in ϕ S<
ϕ< ϕ J 0, when the material is subject to shear strain γ starting from a force-free state. Here …

Due to the constant updates in armor materials and structures, as well as the continuously
increasing ballistic threats, higher requirements have been put forward for the ballistic …
