Odd Dipole Screening in Radial Inflation

Yang Fu, H. George E. Hentschel, Pawandeep Kaur +2

The inflation of an inner radial (or spherical) cavity in an amorphous solids confined in a disk (or a sphere), served as a fruitful case model for studying the effects of plastic…

Dynamic Screening by Plasticity in Amorphous Solids

H. George E. Hentschel, Anna Pomyalov, Itamar Procaccia +1

In recent work, it was shown that elasticity theory can break down in amorphous solids subjected to nonuniform {\em static} loads. The elastic fields are screened by geometric dipo…

The Eshelby problem in amorphous solids

H. George E. Hentschel, Avanish Kumar, Itamar Procaccia +1

The ``Eshelby problem" refers to the response of a 2-dimensional elastic sheet to cutting away a circle, deforming it into an ellipse, and pushing it back. The resulting response i…

Creep failure of amorphous solids under tensile stress

Bhanu Prasad Bhowmik, H. G. E. Hentschel, Itamar Procaccia

Applying constant tensile stress to a piece of amorphous solid results in a slow extension, followed by an eventual rapid mechanical collapse. This "creep" process is of paramount…

Scaling Theory for Wöhler plots in amorphous solids under cyclic forcing

Bhanu Prasad Bhowmik, H. G. E. Hentschel, Itamar Procaccia

In mechanical engineering Wöhler plots serve to measure the average number of load cycles before materials break, as a function of the maximal stress in each cycle. Although such p…

Fatigue and Collapse of Cyclically Bent Strip of Amorphous Solid

Bhanu Prasad Bhowmik, H. G. E. Hentschel, Itamar Procaccia

Fatigue caused by cyclic bending of a piece of material, resulting in its mechanical failure, is a phenomenon that had been studied for ages by engineers and physicists alike. In t…
