剪切过冷胶体液体中的微观结构弛豫

Microscopic Structural Relaxation in a Sheared Supercooled Colloidal Liquid

Dandan Chen, Denis Semwogerere, Jun Sato, Victor Breedveld, Eric R. Weeks

摘要:

在大的剪切应变下致密的非晶材料的流变学还没有完全理解,部分原因是由于难以直接观察这种材料的微观细节。我们使用胶体悬浮液来模拟非晶材料,并利用快速共聚焦显微镜来研究剪切诱导的结构弛豫。我们以几种方式量化颗粒的塑性重排。每一个这些措施的可塑性揭示了空间异质动力学,与局部区域,许多粒子强烈重排这些措施。我们检查这些区域的形状,发现它们基本上是各向同性的,没有任何特定方向的对齐。此外,除了应变施加的总体偏置之外,单个粒子同样可能在任何方向上移动。

英文摘要:

The rheology of dense amorphous materials under large shear strain is not fully understood, partly due to the difficulty of directly viewing the microscopic details of such materials. We use a colloidal suspension to simulate amorphous materials, and study the shear-induced structural relaxation with fast confocal microscopy. We quantify the plastic rearrangements of the particles in several ways. Each of these measures of plasticity reveals spatially heterogeneous dynamics, with localized regions where many particles are strongly rearranging by these measures. We examine the shapes of these regions and find them to be essentially isotropic, with no alignment in any particular direction. Furthermore, individual particles are equally likely to move in any direction, other than the overall bias imposed by the strain.
