Robust Scaling of Strength and Elastic Constants and Universal Cooperativity in Disordered Colloidal Micropillars

Daniel J. Strickland, Yun-Ru Huang, Daeyeon Lee +1

We study the uniaxial compressive behavior of disordered colloidal free-standing micropillars composed of a bidisperse mixture of 3 and 6 um polystyrene particles. Mechanical annea…
