Strong Mechanical Memory Formation in a Dense Granular Suspension

Explore the fascinating world of dense granular suspensions in this lecture on strong mechanical memory formation. Delve into the complex behavior of soft matter as Sayantan Majumdar from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences presents cutting-edge research in the field. Learn about the interdisciplinary nature of soft matter physics, drawing from various branches such as dynamical systems, fluid dynamics, and condensed matter physics. Discover how these concepts apply to diverse areas including biology, earth science, engineering, and even the food and cosmetics industries. Gain insights into the unique properties and behaviors shared by seemingly unrelated systems in soft and living matter. Part of a comprehensive program on soft and living matter, this talk contributes to a broader exploration of topics such as geometry and mechanics, collective phenomena, suspensions and particulate systems, liquid crystals, biological matter, and non-equilibrium physics.
