Stress distributions in soft particle glasses: Insights from a thermodynamic model

Gaelle CarrÃ© de Lusancay — 2025-10-08T06:29:20Z

Minaspi Bantawa ; Paolo Edera ; Michel Cloitre ; Roger T. Bonnecaze J. Rheol. 69, 2025, 611–620 https://doi.org/10.1122/8.0000921
Jammed suspensions of soft particle glasses (SPGs) exhibit intriguing rheological response under different shear flows, such as stress overshoot in start-up shear and Herschel–Bulkley behavior in steady shear. However, the fundamental link between microscopic processes and macroscopic (bulk) behavior remains elusive. To address this, we employ large-scale 3D (…)

ESPCI highlights Paolo Edera's et al. article

Gaelle CarrÃ© de Lusancay — 2025-10-08T06:13:42Z

Congratulations to Paolo Edera, Stefano Aime, and Michel Cloître for their article "Mechanical Tuning of Residual Stress, Memory, and Aging in Soft Glassy Materials featured on the ESPCI Paris website -SPL
Glassy materials rapidly quenched from a liquid to a solid state upon flow cessation or cooling solidify in an out-of-equilibrium configuration, trapping residual stresses and retaining the memory of the processing conditions for very long times, which compromises their physical (…)

Chem. Eur. J. 2024, 30, e20241252, https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.202401252
An iron-catalyzed, visible-light induced decarboxylative alkoxyamination of carboxylic acids with TEMPO is disclosed. In the presence of FeBr2 and TEMPO, a large array of carboxylic acids including marketed drugs and biobased molecules is turned into the corresponding alkoxyamine derivatives. The versatility of the latter offers an entry towards molecular (…)

Shear-induced phase behavior of bidisperse jammed suspensions of soft particles

Thomas Aubineau — 2024-09-25T08:02:57Z

R. Alrashdan, H. K. Yankan, M. Cloître, F. Khabaz Physics of Fluids 2024, 36, 073333, https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0216758
Particle dynamics simulations are used to determine the shear-induced microstructure and rheology of jammed suspensions of soft particles. These suspensions, known as soft particle glasses (SPGs), have an amorphous structure at rest but transform into ordered phases in strong shear flow when the particle size distribution is relatively monodisperse. Here, a series of (…)
