Strong continuous and discontinuous shear thickening (CST and DST) have been shown to be rationalized by the formation of a network of frictional contacts. This continuously evolving network is investigated here using k-core analysis of configurations obtained based on a discrete-particle simulation method. The approach identifies clusters in which each …
