Abstract
A consensus has emerged that a constraint to rotational or sliding motion of particles in dense suspensions under flow is the genesis of the discontinuous shear thickening (DST) phenomenon. We show that tangential fluid lubrication interactions due to finite-sized asperities on particle surfaces effectively provide these constraints, changing the dynamics of particle motion. By explicitly resolving for the surface roughness of particles, we show that, while smooth particles exhibit continuous shear thickening, purely hydrodynamic interactions in rough particles result in DST. In contrast to the frictional contact model, the hydrodynamic model predicts negative first and second normal stress differences for dense suspensions in the shear thickened state.
