Maryland suspends 20,000 drivers licenses per year because of unpaid child support. And how many does it suspend because of bad driving?

A Hamiltonian formulation for the motion of an active spheroidal particle suspended in laminar straight duct flow
We analyse a generalisation of Zöttl and Stark's model of active spherical particles [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 218104 (2012)] and prolate spheroidal particles [Eur. Phys. J. E 36(1), 4 (2013)] suspended in cylindrical Poiseuille flow, to particle dynamics in an arbitrary unidirectional steady laminar flow through a straight duct geometry. Our primary contribution is to describe a Hamiltonian formulation of these systems and provide explicit forms of the constants of motions in terms of the arbitr…

Tuning the Viscosity and Jamming Point in Dense Active non-Brownian Suspensions
Using numerical simulations, we study the rheological response of dense non-Brownian suspensions containing active particles. The active particles are modelled as run-and-tumble particles with three controlling parameters: the fraction of active particles in the system, an active force applied to the particles, and a persistence time after which the direction of the active force changes randomly. Our simulations reveal that the presence of activity can reduce the viscosity (by an order of magni…

“Noor, who made so many friends on Bluesky since she started an account there in the summer of 2023, had her account suddenly suspended on Friday. Bluesky did not send a reason for the suspension, so while she wrote an appeal, she did not know what actions she was appealing, so as of now it's still suspended. She’s been silenced, and effectively disappeared.”

A Future for Noor and Her Children
Hello! I'm Meave, a U.S. citizen sponsoring this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friend Noor Hassan and her children. Noor and her son Abdul Rahman are kind, generous people; though their original fundraiser succeeded last summer, supporting themselves and their extended family cost them everything. This fundraiser will allow them to support themselves and save up to buy passage to Egypt and pursue a better future.

Quick starch guide: A perspective on shear thickening in dense non-Brownian suspensions
In this article, we provide a brief perspective on recent developments in the study of shear thickening in dense suspensions. We give a rapid overview of the state of the art and discuss current models aiming to describe this particular rheology. Although most of the experiments and simulation studies are conducted in "ideal" flows, where the sample is confined without an open boundary condition, we have decided to highlight more realistic flow conditions. We further provide an overview on how …
