Direct evidence of stress-induced chain proximity in a macromolecular complex

PEG/PAA mixtures display shear-induced gelation which can be traced back to chain proximity with NOESY techniques and most likely hydrogen bonding.

Experiments developed for 5VWO students from the local high school Het Streek in Ede.

Thanks Stefan Radl for organizing the training school and Dimitri Fedosov for contributing.

Combining rheology and NMR/MRI methods is very useful! Check out the results of our collaboration with the Biophysics dept here.

Thanks Hu Zheng for visiting. It’s always a pleasure to host you.

Thanks Riccardo Cenni for showing me around the site. Wonderful museum!

Welcome new workhorse for the group of Elke Scholten. I’m sure we want to borrow it every now and then!

Visiting Raul Cruz was very pleasant. Thanks also to Tivadar for the hospitality and to Martin Pastor for a tour through Meler!

Sometimes we want no-slip boundary conditions, but this is a bit too much.

Another round of Introductory Thermodynamics classes. The subject remains as interesting as ever.
