โฆ Synopsis
A simple functional representation of the concentration dependence of the low-shear viscosity eta of hard sphere suspensions is proposed. The representation, which agrees with published literature at all volume fractions phi, has a hitherto-unremarked transition in its functional form at phi approximately 0.42 identical with phi(t). phi(t) is definitely less than the volume fraction 0.49 of the hard sphere melting transition.

In this paper we calculate the shear-induced self and gradient diffusivities in a dilute bidisperse suspension of hard spheres. Unlike the interaction of identical spheres, the center of mass of a pair of unequally sized spheres does not translate with the imposed shear flow and hence the radial and
