Effects of disorder and chain stiffening on the elasticity of flexible polymer networks
Christiane Caroli, Anaël Lemaître
We examine how the distribution of contour lengths and the high-stretch stiffening of individual chain segments affect the macroscopic shear modulus of flexible polymer gels, using…
Ultrafast spherulitic crystal growth as a stress-induced phenomenon specific of fragile glass-formers
Christiane Caroli, Anaël Lemaître
We propose a model for the abrupt emergence, below temperatures close to the glass transition, of the ultra-fast (GC) steady mode of spherulitic crystal growth in deeply undercoole…
Robustness of avalanche dynamics in sheared amorphous solids as probed by transverse diffusion
Joyjit Chattoraj, Christiane Caroli, Anaël Lemaître
Using numerical simulations, we perform an extensive finite-size analysis of the transverse diffusion coefficient in a sheared 2D amorphous solid, over a broad range of strain rate…
Universal, additive effect of temperature on the rheology of amorphous solids
Joyjit Chattoraj, Christiane Caroli, Anaël Lemaître
Extensive measurements of macroscopic stress in a 2D LJ glass, over a broad range of temperatures () and strain rates (), demonstrate a very significant decrease of the f…
Interplay between shear loading and structural aging in a physical gel
O. Ronsin, C. Caroli, T. Baumberger
We show that the aging of the mechanical relaxation of a gelatin gel exhibits the same scaling phenomenology as polymer and colloidal glasses. Besides, gelatin is known to exhibit…
Rate-Dependent Avalanche Size in Athermally Sheared Amorphous Solids
Anaël Lemaître, Christiane Caroli
We perform an extensive numerical study of avalanche behavior in a 2D LJ glass at T=0, sheared at finite strain rates . From the finite size analysis of stress fluctuations…
