Dynamical density functional theory analysis of the laning instability in sheared soft matter
journal contribution
posted on 2017-12-07, 16:46 authored by A. Scacchi, Andrew ArcherAndrew Archer, J.M. BraderUsing dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) methods we investigate the laning instability of a sheared colloidal suspension. The nonequilibrium ordering at the laning transition is driven by non-affine particle motion arising from interparticle interactions. Starting from a DDFT which incorporates the non-affine motion, we perform a linear stability analysis that enables identification of the regions of parameter space where lanes form. We illustrate our general approach by applying it to a simple one-component fluid of soft penetrable particles.
