- Shear-induced mechanical anisotropy in concentrated emulsions : a Pump Probe Mechanical Spectroscopy study Tháng mười một 5, 2025Soft Matter, 2025, Accepted ManuscriptDOI: 10.1039/D5SM00685F, PaperNicolas Beyer, Lorry Engel, Pascal HébraudConcentrated suspensions develop an anisotropic microstructure when subjected to deformation, and this anisotropy persists after flow cessation, leading to direction-dependent mechanical properties. We investigate the mechanical response of a concentrated...The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of ChemistryNicolas Beyer
- Metastable structures in electrospun microfibers with a long-pitch chiral nematic liquid crystal core Tháng mười một 5, 2025Soft Matter, 2025, Advance ArticleDOI: 10.1039/D5SM00591D, PaperMatthew D. Thum, Daniel C. Ratchford, Jeffrey G. Lundin, Jakub KołaczThe chiral nematic core of coaxially electrospun microfibers exhibits discrete twisted structures when the pitch is comparable to the fiber diameter. These structures depend on the chiral pitch, fiber diameter and temperature.To cite this article before page numbers are […]Matthew D. Thum
- Thermocapillary instability in self-rewetting liquid films flowing down a heated soft vertical fibre Tháng mười một 4, 2025Soft Matter, 2025, Advance ArticleDOI: 10.1039/D5SM00661A, PaperMohammed Zubair, Rajagopal VellingiriA thin film model is developed for a self-rewetting liquid film embedded on a soft substrate. Soft-layer deformation may lead to localized bulging in the gas–liquid interface due to conventional thermocapillarity and elasticity of the soft fibre.To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use […]Mohammed Zubair
