Model suspensions Spherical mono-dispersed particles nearly hard spheres buoyant particles

Model experiments: Local measurements of viscosity of normal stresses Of microstructure

Various behaviors various particle interactions various shapes and sizes effect of the flow

Main question: are there solid contacts betweenparticles? What is their effect?

Hydrodynamic collision, rigid particles reversible trajectory

But: the microstructure is anisotropic

trajectories are anisotropic

Why perform local measurements ?
