…before the evening got a little more boisterous! 13 #BinghamMedal winners from
The Society of Rheology and 10 #MetznerAward winners. Congratulations to Jeff Morris and Datta Lab.

Rheologica Acta editorial board meeting. With some big news coming soon from Springer Nature. Continuing the theme of rheologically interesting desserts - a nice viscoelastic frosting! #everythingflows 🧁⏳

🚨Together with L. Ramos, Gareth McKinley & Emanuela Del Gado, we are organizing a summer school on #SoftMatter & #Foodstuff in July 2024 IES Cargese. Join us next year in Cargèse! Registrations & full program available➡️ softfood.sciencesconf.org; RT appreciated! cc The Society of Rheology

Editorial Board dinner for JNNFM. Thanks to Ian Frigaard and Rob Poole and ElsevierChemEng. Journal going strong - and welcome to Datta Lab as the newest Ed Board member ⏳🏛️ #everythingflows

JOR editorial board meeting of The Society of Rheology. Serving a wonderful yield-stress based dessert; a foam, a whipped emulsion and a solidified cocoa dispersion

#icr2023 is underway. Fantastic opening plenary by Ron Larson from University of Michigan summarizing 30years of work on polyethylene- from molecule to crystal to production line

Bring it on #ICR2023 starts here - 93 people signed up for the Advanced Rheol Characterization short course starting tomorrow morning. Acropolis shining bright… #Almosteverythingflows

This is a lovely body of work for a range of different fluids - and introduces a new dimensionless group; the Tanner Number Tn! #everythingflows (and sometime fractures!). As a bonus some of the numerically-computed edge profiles even look like the The Society of Rheology logo ⏳

Kyle Lennon's capstone on developing and properly formulating a framework for learning a true frame-indifferent #digitaltwin for complex fluids! #everythingflows ⏳Excelsoir James Swan!

EIT visualized by Sami YamaniDS and a mechanically talented undergrad MIT MechE using high speed stereoscopic digital polymer schlieren! #everythingflows (but maybe in a different way to classical fluids). ⏳ 🌊

#everythingflows ! ⏳🦆🦆🦆🦆

Check out these beads-on-a-string structures! 👇

#Elasticity meets #fluiddynamics in #viscoelastic #jets

Well done Konstantinos Zinelis 🙌👏

Exciting collab with Gareth McKinley & Thomas Abadie MIT MechE ChemEng Bham

#Rheology #CFD PREMIERE - UKRI-funded Research Programme

Seeing a fluid climbing a rotating rod is a classic demo of nonlinear viscoelasticity...but have you ever tried getting quantitative info? Here's how: Rod-climbing rheometry revisited. With Rishabh More and Lubrizol colloborators. ⏳ #everythingflows pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Happening now … MIT School of Engineering graduation with Lila Snyder MechE’98. Strong representation from MIT MechE faculty MIT Varanasi Group John Hart and Amos Winter

Ever wanted to make a rheological 'master curve' from your data? Here's a data-driven way of doing it and *bonus* getting confidence estimates 'for free' using #GaussianProcessRegression . ⏳ #everythingflows cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Congratulations to my 45th PhD student, Kyle Lennon from MIT ChemE Dept now bound for the Philadelphia Phillies ⚾️ He led our first forays into machine learning for rheology and was my first co-advised graduate student with the incomparable James Swan. He would be very proud I know!⏳

John Hart has been named the new department head of MechE, effective July 1. Hart's research team, the MIT Mechanosynthesis Group, focuses on additive manufacturing, nanostructured materials, precision machine design, and automation.

Finally…we’ve been hunting for a direct connection between fractal dimensions of colloidal gels and the fractional calculus - and now we have it! Read for free at rdcu.be/dbmXX! A rewarding collaboration between MIT MechE and Georgetown Physics that began Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics in 2018 ⏳
