Soft materials often exhibit a distinctive power-law viscoelastic response arising from broad
distribution of time-scales present in their complex internal structure. A promising tool to …

Soft particulate gels are composed of a small amount of particulate matter dispersed in a
continuous fluid phase. The solid components assemble to form a porous matrix, providing …

Nature uses discrete molecular building blocks to form polymers that assemble into
multicomponent, multi-dynamic networks, inside (cytoskeleton) and outside (extracellular …

We use time-resolved mechanical spectroscopy to offer a detailed picture of the gelation
dynamics of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions following shear cessation in the …

We reveal the mechanism for the strong reinforcement of attractive nanofiller-hydrogel
composites. Measuring the linear viscoelastic properties of hydrogels containing filler …

We investigate the spatial correlations of microscopic stresses in soft particulate gels using
2D and 3D numerical simulations. We use a recently developed theoretical framework …

Power law rheology is of widespread occurrence in complex materials that are characterized
by the presence of a very broad range of microstructural length and time scales. Although …

Supramolecular polymers are known to form strong and resilient hydrogels which can take
up large amounts of water while exhibiting ease of processing and self-healing. They also …

The strange metallic regime across a number of high-temperature superconducting
materials presents numerous challenges to the classic theory of Fermi liquid metals. Recent …

We study the linear response rheology, structure, and dynamics of colloidal gels formed by
arrested phase separation with a combination of experiments and dynamic simulation, with …
