A percolation model for slow dynamics in glass-forming materials
Gregg Lois, Jerzy Blawzdziewicz, Corey S. O'Hern
We identify a link between the glass transition and percolation of mobile regions in configuration space. We find that many hallmarks of glassy dynamics, for example stretched-expo…
Non-random coil behavior as a consequence of extensive PPII structure in the denatured state
Aitziber L. Cortajarena, Gregg Lois, Eilon Sherman +3
Unfolded proteins may contain native or non-native residual structure, which has important implications for the thermodynamics and kinetics of folding as well as for misfolding and…
Reliable protein folding on non-funneled energy landscapes: the free energy reaction path
Gregg Lois, Jerzy Blawzdziewicz, Corey S. O'Hern
A theoretical framework is developed to study the dynamics of protein folding. The key insight is that the search for the native protein conformation is influenced by the rate r at…
The jamming transition and new percolation universality classes in particulate systems with attraction
Gregg Lois, Jerzy Blawzdziewicz, Corey S. O'Hern
We numerically study the jamming transition in particulate systems with attraction by investigating their mechanical response at zero temperature. We find three regimes of mechanic…
Force networks and the dynamic approach to jamming in sheared granular media
Gregg Lois, Jean M. Carlson
Diverging correlation lengths on either side of the jamming transition are used to formulate a rheological model of granular shear flow, based on the propagation of stress through…
Long Range Correlation in Granular Shear Flow II: Theoretical Implications
Gregg Lois, Anael Lemaitre, Jean M. Carlson
Numerical simulations are used to test the kinetic theory constitutive relations of inertial granular shear flow. These predictions are shown to be accurate in the dilute regime, w…
