Phase behavior of a simple dipolar fluid under shear flow in an electric field
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations are performed on a dense simple dipolar fluid under a planar Couette shear flow. Shear generates heat, which is removed by thermostatting terms added to the equations of motion of the fluid particles. The spatial structure of simple fluids at high shear rates is known to depend strongly on the thermostatting mechanism chosen. Kinetic thermostats are either biased or unbiased: biased thermostats neglect the existence of secondary flows that appear at high shear rates superimposed upon the linear velocity profile of the fluid. Simulations that employ a biased thermostat produce a string phase where particles align in strings with hexagonal symmetry along the direction of the flow. This phase is known to be a simulation artifact of biased thermostatting, and has not been observed by experiments on colloidal suspensions under shear flow. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of using a suitably directed electric field, which is coupled to the dipole moments of the fluid particles, to stabilize the string phase. We explore several thermostatting mechanisms where either the kinetic or configurational fluid degrees of freedom are thermostated. Some of these mechanisms do not yield a string phase, but rather a shear-thickening phase; in this case, we find the influence of the dipolar interactions and external field on the packing structure, and in turn their influence on the shear viscosity at the onset of this shear-thickening regime.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
