Quantifying the Features of an Amorphous Solid's Local Yield Surface
Spencer Fajardo, Paul Desmarchelier, Sylvain Patinet +1
In two-dimensional Lennard-Jones glasses, mechanical probing reveals that local yield surfaces are dominated by regions with a positive second derivative of the yield stress with r…
Recent Advances in Metallic Glasses
Silvia Bonfanti, Ralf Busch, Jesper Byggmästar +12
This paper reviews recent advances in the field of metallic glasses, focusing on the development of novel experimental techniques and in silico models. We discuss progress in exper…
Topological characterization of rearrangements in amorphous solids
Paul Desmarchelier, Spencer Fajardo, Michael L. Falk
In amorphous materials, plasticity is localized and occurs as shear transformations. It was recently shown by Wu et al. that these shear transformations can be predicted by applyin…
Quantifying the Structure of Disordered Materials
Thomas J. Hardin, Michael Chandross, Rahul Meena +5
Durable interest in developing a framework for the detailed structure of glassy materials has produced numerous structural descriptors that trade off between general applicability…
