Electrostatically Reinforced Double Network Granular Hydrogels

Esther Amstad, John Martin Kolinski, Chenzhuo Li, Tianyu Yuan

Rapid advances in biomedical applications and soft robotics demand load-bearing soft materials that can be processed into complex 3D shapes. Direct ink writing (DIW) enables the fabrication of customizable shapes with locally varying compositions. Hydrogel ...

Coating thickness prediction for a viscous film on a rough plate

François Gallaire, John Martin Kolinski, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

Surface roughness significantly modifies the liquid film thickness entrained when dip coating a solid surface, particularly at low coating velocity. Using a homogenization approach, we present a predictive model for determining the liquid film thickness co ...

Monitoring system for a filtration process

John Martin Kolinski, Youssef Eddebbarh

The present invention concerns a monitoring system (2) adapted to monitor and/or pilot a filtration process of a slurry (S) under pressure, based on data collected from sensor (Q1, Q2, Q3...Qn) and a first computing unit (U1). It further concerns a filtrat ...

3D characterization of kinematic fields and poroelastic swelling near the tip of a propagating crack in a hydrogel

John Martin Kolinski, Chenzhuo Li

In fracture mechanics, polyacrylamide hydrogel has been widely used as a model material in experiments due to its optical transparency, the brittle nature of its failure, and low Rayleigh wave velocity. Indeed, linear elastic fracture mechanics has been us ...

Fluid-mediated impact of soft solids

Jean-François Molinari, Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, John Martin Kolinski, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez

A viscous, lubrication-like response can be triggered in a thin film of fluid squeezed between a rigid flat surface and the tip of an incoming projectile. We develop a scaling for this viscous approach stage of fluid-mediated normal impact, applicable to s ...

Complexity of crack front geometry enhances toughness of brittle solids

John Martin Kolinski, Chenzhuo Li, Xinyue Wei

Brittle solids typically fail by growth and propagation of a crack from a surface flaw. This process is modelled using linear elastic fracture mechanics, which parameterizes the toughness of a material by the critical stress intensity factor, or the prefac ...

Revealing the complexity of ultra-soft hydrogel re-swelling inside the brain

Stéphanie Lacour, Outman Akouissi, John Martin Kolinski, Michael Shur, Olivier Didier Christian Rizzo

The brain is an ultra-soft viscoelastic matrix. Sub-kPa hydrogels match the brain's mechanical properties but are challenging to manipulate in an implantable format. We propose a simple fabrication and processing sequence, consisting of de-hydration, patte ...

Measurement of the Z boson production cross-section in proton-lead collisions at root(NN)-N-s=8.16 TeV

Lesya Shchutska, Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Tatsuya Nakada, François Fleuret, John Martin Kolinski, Mingkui Wang, Chao Wang

This article presents the first measurement of the differential Z-boson production cross-section in the forward region using proton-lead collisions with the LHCb detector. The dataset was collected at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of root(NN)-N-s ...
