The jamming of dense suspensions under imposed stress

Suspensions of solid particles within a solvent display a variety of interesting rheological behaviour. The viscosity can vary with applied stress, resulting in materials which become thinner or thicker as they are driven more strongly.  Thickening can become so severe that the flow becomes erratic...
