Description:
Author(s): M. C. Jenkins, M. D. Haw, G. C. Barker, W. C. K. Poon, and S. U. Egelhaaf We study structures which can bear loads, “bridges”, in particulate packings. To investigate the relationship between bridges and gravity, we experimentally determine bridge statistics in colloidal packings. We vary the effective magnitude and direction of gravity, volume fraction, and interactions,... [Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 038302] Published Fri Jul 15, 2011
