Yield stress is difficult, if not impossible to measure experimentally (‘παντα ρει’) 2. Herschel-Bulkley model does NOT account for shear localization (shear banding) 1.

Both the packing and the house of cards structure are unstable against mechnical perturbation. The high salt concentration makes the colloids flocculate, making the liquefaction even more spectacular. Next questions: -buoyancy? -normal/viscous stresses Sinking test….
