Pier Luca has been included among the Fellows of the Society of Rheology for the class 2018 with the motivation “… for distinguished contributions to the field of modeling and simulation of the flow behavior of soft matter, including the rheology of liquid crystalline polymers, polymer blends, and emulsions.” From…
Pier Luca gave the talk “Rheo-engineered Microfluidics” at the Gordon Conference: Microfluidics, Physics & Chemistry of, 06/04/2017 – 06/09/2017 Renaissance Tuscany Il Ciocco in Lucca (Barga) Italy.
A paper from the Bottega in the Article Collection gathering together 40 previously published papers, one from each year of JNNFM. The paper by Gaetano and Pier Luca (Particle dynamics in viscoelastic liquids) was selected by the Editors of JNNFM in the list of the 40 papers to celebrate the 40 glorious…
Our paper “Rheology of a dilute viscoelastic suspension of spheroids in unconfined shear flow” (Rheologica Acta 54 (2015) 915-928) has been awarded as best paper in 2016. The award ceremony will take place during AERC 2017 in Copenhagen.
Our paper “Particle motion in square channel flow of a viscoelastic liquid: Migration vs. secondary flows“, published in 2013, is one of the most highly cited papers of Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics during 2014, 2015 and up until June 2016 (Scopus Metrics ). JNNFM Cerificate
Francesco DG, Francesco G and Pier Luca published a new paper “Relaxation time of polyelectrolyte solutions: When μ-rheometry steps in charge” in Journal of Rheology.
Today Marco De Corato, Khurram Shahzad and Marco Trofa successfully completed their PhD program! Congratulations to all of them for brilliant defenses.
