High-speed ultrasound imaging in dense suspensions reveals impact-activated solidification due to dynamic shear jamming
Suspensions of particles at high volume fractions are subject to discontinuous shear thickening or even turn into solid upon impact, yet the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, Han et al. follow the propagation of shear bands at jamming fronts in three dimensions and show no sign of densific...
