The Ideal Glass and the Ideal Disk Packing in Two Dimensions
Viola Bolton-Lum, R. Cameron Dennis, Peter Morse +1
The ideal glass, a disordered system of particles with zero configurational entropy, cannot be realized through thermal processes. Nevertheless, we present a method for constructin…
Hyperuniform Jammed Sphere Packings Have Anomalous Material Properties
Jack R. Dale, James D. Sartor, R. Cameron Dennis +1
A spatial distribution is hyperuniform if it has local density fluctuations that vanish in the limit of long length scales. Hyperuniformity is a well known property of both crystal…
Emergence of zero modes in disordered solids under periodic tiling
R. Cameron Dennis, Varda F. Hagh, Eric I. Corwin
In computational models of particle packings with periodic boundary conditions, it is assumed that the packing is attached to exact copies of itself in all possible directions. The…
Methods for Creation and Linear Elastic Response Analysis of Packings of Semi-flexible Soft Polymer Chains
R. C. Dennis
From understanding the sand on the beach to the foam on your beer, soft sphere simulations have been crucial to the study of the amorphous world around us. However, many of the mat…
Dionysian Hard Sphere Packings are Mechanically Stable at Vanishingly Low Densities
R. C. Dennis, E. I. Corwin
High strength-to-weight ratio materials can be constructed by either maximizing strength or minimizing weight. Tensegrity structures and aerogels take very different paths to achie…
Jamming Energy Landscape is Hierarchical and Ultrametric
R. C. Dennis, E. I. Corwin
The free energy landscape of mean field marginal glasses is ultrametric. We demonstrate that this feature remains in finite three dimensional systems by finding sets of minima whic…
