We formulate a particle and force level, activated dynamics-based statistical mechanical
theory for the continuous startup nonlinear shear rheology of ultradense glass-forming hard …

Researchers have conducted extensive experimental and theoretical studies on the
jamming transition of colloidal and granular suspensions, but the existence and …

As amorphous materials get jammed, both geometric and dynamic heterogeneity are
observed. We investigate the correlation between the local geometric heterogeneity and …

We highlight the current state-of-the-art in modeling emulsion rheology, ranging from dilute
to jammed dense systems. We focus on analytical and numerical methods developed for …

My PhD work consists of two simulation projects. One is to study the effect of polydispersity
on the dense 2D granular system under steady shear. We use the Durian bubble model …
