Thermally fluctuating, semiflexible sheets in simple shear flow
- Department of Chemical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, 02139, USA
Fluctuating semiflexible sheets dispersed in a fluid are simulated under simple shear flow. A dynamical crumpling transition is observed, flipping statistics are quantified, and rheological properties are estimated for dilute suspensions of sheets.
