Recent flow cessation experiments on soft materials have shown a counter-intuitive non-monotonic relaxation of the shear stress: following the switch-off of a steady imposed shear flow, the stress initially decays before later increasing again. By si... Read More about Shear banding as a cause of nonmonotonic stress relaxation after flow cessation.

We use particle simulations to map comprehensively the shear rheology of dry and wet granular matter comprising particles of finite stiffness, in both fixed pressure and fixed volume protocols. At fixed pressure we find nonmonotonic constitutive curv... Read More about Nonmonotonic Constitutive Curves and Shear Banding in Dry and Wet Granular Flows.
