Dissipative particle dynamics simulations are performed to study the structural and
dynamical properties of various systems of nanoparticles accumulated at the water/oil …

We introduce a local order metric (LOM) that measures the degree of order in the
neighborhood of an atomic or molecular site in a condensed medium. The LOM maximizes …

Light‐induced self‐assembly offers a new route to build mesoscale optical matter arrays
from nanoparticles (NPs), yet the low stability of optical matter systems limits the assembly of …

We report experiments on the dynamics of vibrated particles constrained in a two-
dimensional vertical container, motivated by the following question: how to get the most out …

Light-mediated self-organization of nanoparticles (NPs) offers a route to study mesoscale
electrodynamics interactions in many-body systems. Here we report the phase transition and …

We investigate, within a local density functional theory formalism, the interactions between
like-charged polyions immersed in a confined electrolyte. We obtain a simple condition for a …

The shear-induced migration of concentrated non-Brownian monodisperse suspensions in
combined plane Couette-Poiseuille (CP) flows is studied using a lattice Boltzmann …

Dusty plasmas have been studied in argon, radio frequency (rf) glow discharge plasmas
with magnetic fields up to 1.5 T. Plasmas were formed between a powered bottom electrode …

The crystallization of colloidal particles at an air-water interface is investigated by computer
simulations. We numerically clarify the bond-orientational order parameter Φ 6 with different …

Dense colloidal suspensions can propagate and absorb large mechanical stresses,
including impacts and shocks. The wave transport stems from the delicate interplay between …
