Nanoscale Imaging of Phonons and Reconfiguration in Topologically-Engineered, Self-Assembled Nanoparticle Lattice
Chang Qian, Ethan Stanifer, Zhan Ma +6
Topologically-engineered mechanical frames are important model constructs for architecture, machine mechanisms, and metamaterials. Despite significant advances in macroscopically f…
Stress control in non-ideal topological Maxwell lattices via geometry
Harry Liu, Siddhartha Sarkar, A. Nafis Arafat +3
Topological mechanical metamaterials have demonstrated exotic and robust mechanical properties which led to promising engineering applications. One of such properties is the focusi…
Assur graphs, marginally jammed packings, and reconfigurable metamaterials
Jose Ortiz, Ethan Stanifer, Xiaoming Mao
Isostatic frames are mechanical networks that are simultaneously rigid and free of self-stress states, and is a powerful concept in understanding phase transitions in soft matter a…
Searching for structural predictors of plasticity in dense active packings
Julia A. Giannini, Ethan M. Stanifer, M. Lisa Manning
In amorphous solids subject to shear or thermal excitation, so-called structural indicators have been developed that predict locations of future plasticity or particle rearrangemen…
Prestressed elasticity of amorphous solids
Shang Zhang, Ethan Stanifer, Vishwas Vasisht +3
Prestress in amorphous solids bears the memory of their formation, and plays a profound role in their mechanical properties, from stiffening or softening elastic moduli to shifting…
Avalanche dynamics in sheared athermal particle packings occurs via localized bursts predicted by unstable linear response
Ethan Stanifer, M. Lisa Manning
Under applied shear strain, granular and amorphous materials deform via particle rearrangements, which can be small and localized or organized into system-spanning avalanches. Whil…
