  A systematic microscopic theory for the rheology of dense non-Brownian
suspensions characterized by the volume fraction $\varphi$ is developed. The
theory successfully derives the critical behavior in the vicinity of the
jamming point (volume fraction $\varphi_{J}$), for both the pressure $P$ and
the shear stress $\sigma_{xy}$, i.e. $P \sim \sigma_{xy} \sim \dot\gamma \eta_0
\delta\varphi^{-2}$, where $\dot\gamma$ is the shear rate, $\eta_0$ is the
shear viscosity of the solvent, and $\delta\varphi = \varphi_J - \varphi > 0$
is the distance from the jamming point. It also successfully describes the
behavior of the stress ratio $\mu = \sigma_{xy}/P$ with respect to the viscous
number $J=\dot\gamma\eta_{0}/P$.
