Linear stability and viscoelastic response in weakly jammed frictional granular systems

Masanari Shimada, Yusuke Hara, Shihori Koyama +2

Granular particles typically feature contact friction, which gives rise to various nontrivial properties of granular materials. In this work, we investigate the linear stability of…

Statistical mechanics of fluids with hidden degrees of freedom

Masanari Shimada, Tetsuya J. Kobayashi

Although coarse-grained models have been widely used to explain exotic phenomena in complex fluids, such as droplet formation in living cells, these conventional approaches often f…

Fermionic theory of nonequilibrium steady states

Eric De Giuli, Masanari Shimada

As the quantification of metabolism, nonequilibrium steady states play a central role in living matter, but are beyond the purview of equilibrium statistical mechanics. Here we dev…

Universal Slow Dynamics of Chemical Reaction Networks

Masanari Shimada, Pegah Behrad, Eric De Giuli

Understanding the emergent behavior of chemical reaction networks (CRNs) is a fundamental aspect of biology and its origin from inanimate matter. A closed CRN monotonically tends t…

Instantaneous normal modes of glass-forming liquids during the athermal relaxation process of the steepest descent algorithm

Masanari Shimada, Kumpei Shiraishi, Hideyuki Mizuno +1

Understanding glass formation by quenching remains a challenge in soft condensed matter physics. Recent numerical studies on steepest descent dynamics, which is one of the simplest…

Gas-liquid phase separation at zero temperature: mechanical interpretation and implications for gelation

Masanari Shimada, Norihiro Oyama

The relationship between glasses and gels has been intensely debated for decades; however, the transition between these two phases remains elusive. To investigate a gel formation p…

Spatial structure of unstable normal modes in a glass-forming liquid

Masanari Shimada, Daniele Coslovich, Hideyuki Mizuno +1

The phenomenology of glass-forming liquids is often described in terms of their underlying, high-dimensional potential energy surface. In particular, the statistics of stationary p…
