Dynamic transitions and oscillatory melting of a two-dimensional crystal subjected to shear flow [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The effect of a delicate balance of forces on the dynamic behavior of monodisperse spherical polystyrene particles suspended at the interface between decane and water, was studied. The results demonstrated that the application of shear flow to particles arranged in a hexagonal lattice at the interface between decane and water caused the transition of the lattice structure to a new semiordered state. Particle concentration and shear rate were shown to be the key factors in determining the particle dynamics in this new state. A phase diagram compiled from data over a wide range of particle concentrations and shear rates outlined the transition between these two regimes.
