Discontinuous Shear Thickening in Cornstarch Suspensions
We study the emergence of discontinuous shear-thickening (DST) in cornstarch, the well know system for this phenomenon, by combining macroscopic rheometry with local Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) measurements. We bring evidence that macroscopic DST is characterized in wide gap with a shear locali...
