Multi-scale strain as a predictor of impact-induced fissuring in articular cartilage
Relating Microstructure and Particle-level Stress in Colloidal Crystals Under Increased Confinement
Tunable Shear Thickening in Suspensions
Measuring nonlinear stresses generated by defects in 3D colloidal crystals
Turning a Microscope into a Pressure Gauge
Did you know that your brighfield or confocal microscope can actually measure stresses in colloidal materials? Here we introduce our SALSA (Stress Assessment from Local Structrure Anisotropy) method determining the stresses in hard-sphere colloidal suspensions. By just using the particle positions, SALSA can effectively transform your micorscope into a local pressure gauge.
