Nanoemulsions exhibit unique behavior due to their nanoscopic dimensions, including
remarkable droplet stability, interactions, and rheology. These properties are significantly …

Different possible mechanisms of non-Newtonian behavior of polymeric and multi-
component materials in shearing are discussed. There are two main types of the non …

Steady and oscillatory rheology was utilized to study the mechanical response of colloidal
glasses and gels with particular emphasis in their yielding behaviour. We used a …

While the interplay between liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and glass formation in
biological systems is highly relevant for their structure formation and thus function, the exact …

The depletion attraction, induced upon addition of a nonadsorbing polymer to a colloidal
solution, can lead to gel formation at sufficiently high polymer concentrations, which …

We use numerical simulations and an athermal quasistatic shear protocol to investigate the
yielding of a model colloidal gel. Under increasing deformation, the elastic regime is …

Soft solids with tunable mechanical response are at the core of new material technologies,
but a crucial limit for applications is their progressive aging over time, which dramatically …

We study via theory and dynamical simulation the evolving structure, particle dynamics, and
time-dependent rheological properties of an aging colloidal gel, with a focus on the micro …

Coarsening and kinetic arrest of colloidal systems undergoing spinodal decomposition (SD)
is a conserved motif for forming hierarchical, bicontinuous structures. Although the …

In situ interfacial rheology and numerical simulations are used to investigate microgel
monolayers in a wide range of packing fractions, ζ 2 D. The heterogeneous particle …
