Self-assembly in a near-frictionless granular material: Conformational structures and transitions in uniaxial cyclic compression of hydrogel spheres
Detecting network structures in packings of cyclically loaded spheres requires math. Lots of math…. D.M. Walker, A. Tordesillas, N. Brodu, J.A. Dijksman, R.P. Behringer, G. Froyland — Soft Matter 11, 2157–2173 (2015) 10.1039/c4sm02384f
Spanning the scales of granular materials through microscopic force imaging

A simple low pressure drop suspension-based microfluidic mixer
Mixing stuff in very viscous fluids, or better said: at low Reynolds number, is not easy. Here is a microfluidics tool that allows one to do so anyway. It uses a simple small magnet aka stirring bar in a small chamber. M.J. Workamp, V. Saggiomo, J.A. Dijksman — Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering 25 (2015)Continue reading “A simple low pressure drop suspension-based microfluidic mixer”
Multiple-contact discrete-element model for simulating dense granular media
Deformable spheres in a packing under compression can develop additional physics when new contacts are created due to their deformability and volume conservation. Here we introduce a DEM code that can calculate these consequences. N. Brodu, J.A. Dijksman, R.P. Behringer — Physical Review. E, Statistical nonlinear, and soft matter physics 91 (2015) 10.1103/PhysRevE.91.032201
Obtaining self-similar scalings in focusing flows
Measuring power laws is hard! Fortunately, Newtonian fluids are well behaved. J.A. Dijksman, S. Mukhopadhyay, C. Gaebler, T.P. Witelski, R.P. Behringer — Physical Review. E, Statistical nonlinear, and soft matter physics 92 (2015) 10.1103/PhysRevE.92.043016
