• #### Nonuniversality and finite dissipation in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence ﻿

This dataset contains the results of the study discussed in the paper 'Nonuniversality and finite dissipation in decaying magnetohydrodynamic turbulence': "A model equation for the Reynolds number dependence of the ...
• #### Self-organization and transition to turbulence in isotropic fluid motion driven by negative damping at low wavenumbers ﻿

We observe a symmetry-breaking transition from a turbulent to a self-organized state in direct numerical simulation of the Navier-Stokes equation at very low Reynolds number. In this self-organised state the kinetic energy ...
• #### UK Research Software Survey 2014 ﻿

This spreadsheet contains the anonymised data collected as part of a survey of UK researchers in their use of research software. We asked people specifically about “research software” which we defined as: “Software ...
• #### Towards a unified description of the rheology of hard-particle suspensions ﻿

The rheology of suspensions of Brownian, or colloidal, particles (diameter~$d \lesssim 1~\mu$m) differs markedly from that of larger grains ($d \gtrsim 50~\mu$m). Each of these two regimes has been separately studied, but ...
• #### Escherichia coli as a model active colloid: A practical introduction ﻿

The ﬂagellated bacterium Escherichia coli is increasingly used experimentally as a self-propelled swimmer. To obtain meaningful, quantitative results that are comparable between different laboratories, reproducible protocols ...
• #### Particle-size effects in the formation of bicontinuous Pickering emulsions ﻿

We demonstrate that the formation of bicontinuous emulsions stabilized by interfacial particles (bijels) is more robust when nanoparticles rather than microparticles are used. Emulsification via spinodal demixing in the ...
• #### Sudden relaminarisation and lifetimes in forced isotropic turbulence ﻿

We demonstrate an unexpected connection between isotropic turbulence and wall-bounded shear flows. We perform direct numerical simulations of isotropic turbulence forced at large scales at moderate Reynolds numbers and ...
• #### Swimming In a Crystal ﻿

We study catalytic Janus particles and Escherichia coli bacteria swimming in a two-dimensional colloidal crystal. The Janus particles orbit individual colloids and hop between colloids stochastically, with a hopping rate ...
• #### Gravitational collapse of depletion-induced colloidal gels ﻿

We study the ageing and ultimate gravitational collapse of colloidal gels in which the interparticle attraction is induced by non-adsorbing polymers via the depletion effect. The gels are formed through arrested spinodal ...
• #### Simplicity in complexity – towards a soft matter physics of caramel ﻿

Caramel is a mixture of sugars, milk proteins, fat and water cooked at high temperatures to initiate Maillard reactions. We study caramels as ‘active emulsion-filled protein gels’, in which fat droplets are chemically-bonded ...
• #### Shear thickening regimes of dense non-Brownian suspensions ﻿

The images are the raw figures used to produce the plots in the paper entitled: “Shear thickening regimes of dense non-Brownian suspensions” with DOI:10.1039/C5SM02326B published in the Journal “Soft Matter” by the Royal ...
• #### Hydrodynamic and Contact Contributions to Continuous Shear Thickening in Colloidal Suspensions ﻿

Shear thickening is a widespread phenomenon in suspension flow that, despite sustained study, is still the subject of much debate. The longstanding view that shear thickening is due to hydrodynamic clusters has been ...
• #### Two-scale evolution during shear reversal in dense suspensions ﻿

Matlab data files used to plot the figures in a paper titled "Two-scale evolution during shear reversal in dense suspensions".
• #### Theory of high pressure hydrogen, made simple / AIRAPT 2015 data ﻿

We report molecular dynamics calculations for Phase I of hydrogen which show that all the phase transitions can be understood in a classical model with simple treatment of exchange-correlation. We present code for a simple ...
• #### Computational phase diagrams of noble gas hydrates under pressure ﻿

We present results from a first-principles study on the stability of noble gas-water compounds in the pressure range 0-100 kbar. Filled-ice structures based on the host water networks ice-Ih, ice-Ic, ice-II, and C0 interacting ...
• #### Pressure-induced localisation of the hydrogen-bond network in KOH-VI ﻿

Using a combination of ab initio crystal structure prediction and neutron diffraction techniques, we have solved the full structure of KOH-VI at 7 GPa. Rather than being orthorhombic and proton-ordered as had previously ...
• #### Predicting the three-dimensional folding of cis-regulatory regions in mammalian genomes using bioinformatic data and polymer models ﻿

The three-dimensional organisation of chromosomes can be probed using methods such as Capture-C. However it is unclear how such population level data relates to the organisation within a single cell, and the mechanisms ...
• #### What is the ‘minimum inhibitory concentration’ (MIC) of pexiganan acting on Escherichia coli? - A cautionary case study ﻿

We measured the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the antimicrobial peptide pexiganan acting on Escherichia coli, and report an intrinsic variability in such measurements. These results led to a detailed study of ...
• #### Lid-driven cavity flow of viscoelastic liquids ﻿

The lid-driven cavity flow is a well-known benchmark problem for the validation of new numerical methods and techniques. In experimental and numerical studies with viscoelastic fluids in such lid-driven flows, purely-elastic ...
• #### A 1-dimensional statistical mechanics model for nucleosome positioning on genomic DNA ﻿

The first level of folding of DNA in eukaryotes is provided by the so-called “10-nm chromatin fibre”, where DNA wraps around histone proteins (∼10 nm in size) to form nucleosomes, which go on to create a zig-zagging ...
