Block copolymer (BCP) represents a special type of polymeric system where each of the
polymer chains is composed of two or more chemically distinct homopolymer blocks that are …

Electroosmosis is a fascinating effect where liquid motion is induced by an applied electric
field. Counter ions accumulate in the vicinity of charged surfaces, triggering a coupling …

Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) belongs to a class of models and computational
algorithms developed to address mesoscale problems in complex fluids and soft matter in …

Colloidal gels exhibit rich rheological responses under flowing conditions. A clear
understanding of the coupling between the kinetics of the formation/rupture of colloidal …

Stable oil/water emulsions are usually obtained by using mixtures of different surfactants.
Such systems display synergistic interface stabilizing effects, which have not been fully …

Hypothesis Surface modification of dielectric materials changes the dipole–dipole
interactions under electric fields, thereby controlling the electrorheological (ER) response …

A nanocarrier drug delivery system, effectively assisting to improve the solubility,
bioavailability, and targeting of drugs in the human body, is a crucial means for treating …

We identify the sequence of microstructural changes that characterize the evolution of an
attractive particulate gel under flow and discuss their implications on macroscopic rheology …

We report experimental and computational observations of dynamic contact networks for
colloidal suspensions undergoing shear thickening. The dense suspensions are comprised …

Controlling the structure and the rheological properties of colloidal suspension is essential
in numerous applications to control the phenomenon known as shear-thickening. Here, we …
