Granular materials-from soils to pharmaceutical powders-exhibit mechanical behavior governed by interaction between solid grains and interstitial fluids. Capillary forces critically control these ...
The dynamic buckling of circular rings is a pervasive instability problem with a major impact in various fields, such as structural, nuclear and offshore engineering, robotics, electromechanics, and ...
Data assimilation is a Bayesian inference process that obtains an enhanced understanding of a physical system of interest by fusing information from an inexact physics-based model, and from noisy ...

The rheological behavior of concentrated suspensions is a complicated problem because it originates in the collective motion of particles and their interaction with the surrounding fluid. For this ...
In areas as diverse as developmental biology, physiology, and biomimetics, there is great interest in understanding the mechanisms by which active hair-like cellular appendages known as flagella or ...
