Life and death of colloidal bonds control the rate-dependent rheology of gels

Understanding the origin of transient spatio-temporal response of colloidal gels is an essential aspect for their application. Nabizadeh and Jamali demonstrate the coupling between the lifetime of colloidal bonds and the rheology from computer simulations on steadily sheared model gels.
