Supplemental Material for "Shear-Driven Flow of Athermal, Frictionless, Spherocylinder Suspensions in Two Dimensions: Spatial Structure and Correlations," by T. A. Marschall and S. Teitel

The Supplemental Material consists of a set of animations showing the shearing of various configurations discussed in the paper.

A size monodisperse system of spherocylinders of alpha=4 at packing phi=0.95 and strain rate gdot=1e-6. The total number of particles is N=1024. The animation runs from gamma=185 to gamma=205, showing the formation of banded motion of coherently moving blocks.

m05-bidisperse_stacks_p90dg1e-05.mp4

Animation of the shearing of an ordered, size bidisperse, configuration of stacks of big and small apherocylinders of alpha=4, as in Fig. 69(a). Packing is phi=0.75 at strain rate gdot=1e-5. The total number of particles is N=1120. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0.

m06-bidisperse_stacks_p95dg1e-05.mp4

Animation of the shearing of a size bidisperse configuration of locally ordered stacks of big and small apherocylinders of alpha=4, as in Fig. 69(a). Packing is phi=0.95 at strain rate gdot=1e-5. The total number of particles is N=1120. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0.

m07-bidisperse_phase-separated_p90dg1e-05.mp4

Animation of the shearing of a size bidisperse configuration that is phase separated into regions of ordered big and small spherocylinders of alpha=4, separated by a disordered interface, as in Fig. 70(a). Packing is phi=0.90 at strain rate gdot=1e-5. The total number of particles is N=1120. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0.

m08-bidisperse_phase-separated_p95dg1e-05.mp4

Animation of the shearing of a size bidisperse configuration that is phase separated into regions of ordered big and small spherocylinders of alpha=4, separated by a disordered interface, as in Fig. 70(a). Packing is phi=0.85 at strain rate gdot=1e-5. The total number of particles is N=1120. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0.

m09-monodisperse_grid_p75dg1e-04.mp4

Animation of the shearing of the ordered, size monodisperse, configuration of spherocylinders of alpha=4shown in Fig. 73(a). Particles are arranged on a rectangular grid of sites and then each particle's position is randomly shifted within its Voronoi cell. Packing is phi=0.75 at strain rate gdot=1e-4. The total number of particles is N=1024. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0, and disorders as it is sheared.

m10-monodisperse_grid_p85dg1e-04.mp4

Animation of the shearing of the ordered, size monodisperse, configuration of spherocylinders of alpha=4shown in Fig. 73(a). Particles are arranged on a rectangular grid of sites and then each particle's position is randomly shifted within its Voronoi cell. Packing is phi=0.85 at strain rate gdot=1e-4. The total number of particles is N=1024. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0, and remains ordered until the end at gamma=400. The animation runs with a slow gamma per frame rate until gamma=10, so as to allow one to see the wagging motion of the particles, then speeds up until gamma=20, and then speeds up again until the end of the simulation.

m11-monodisperse_defect_p90dg1e-04.mp4

Animation of the shearing of the ordered, size monodisperse, configuration of spherocylinders of alpha=4shown in Fig. 75(a). Particles are arranged on a rectangular grid of sites and then each particle's position is randomly shifted within its Voronoi cell.  Then the 5 particles in the lower left corner are rotated by 90 degrees to introduce a localized defect. Packing is phi=0.90 at strain rate gdot=1e-4. The total number of particles is N=1024. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0, and and disorders as it is sheared.

m12-monodisperse_defect_p95dg1e-04.mp4

Animation of the shearing of the ordered, size monodisperse, configuration of spherocylinders of alpha=4shown in Fig. 75(a). Particles are arranged on a rectangular grid of sites and then each particle's position is randomly shifted within its Voronoi cell.  Then the 5 particles in the lower left corner are rotated by 90 degrees to introduce a localized defect. Packing is phi=0.95 at strain rate gdot=1e-4. The total number of particles is N=1024. The animation starts with the initial ordered configuration at gamma=0; around gamma=200 the defect introduced in the initial configuration disappears, the system orders with all particles parallel to the flow, and remains ordered until the end.
