Spatiotemporal Hierarchy of Slow Avalanches During Creep

Vladimir Yu. Rudyak, Dor Shohat, Yoav Lahini

Far from equilibrium, amorphous solids exhibit structural relaxations that span a vast range of timescales such as physical aging and creep. Recently, it has been shown that such r…

Aging of amorphous materials under cyclic strain

Dor Shohat, Paul Baconnier, Itamar Procaccia +2

Amorphous materials driven away from equilibrium display a diverse repertoire of complex, history-dependent behaviors. One striking feature is a failure to return to equilibrium af…

Microscopic description of the intermittent dynamics driving logarithmic creep

Daniel J. Korchinski, Dor Shohat, Yoav Lahini +1

Disordered materials under an imposed forcing can display creep and aging effects, accompanied by intermittent, spatially heterogeneous dynamics. We propose a unifying microscopic…

Geometric control and memory in networks of hysteretic elements

Dor Shohat, Martin van Hecke

The response of driven frustrated media stems from interacting hysteretic elements. We derive explicit mappings from networks of hysteretic springs to their abstract representation…

Are crumpled sheets marginally stable?

Dor Shohat, Yoav Lahini, Daniel Hexner

We study networks of coupled bistable elastic elements, recently proposed as a model for crumpled thin sheets. The networks are poised on the verge of a localized instability, and…

Logarithmic aging via instability cascades in disordered systems

Dor Shohat, Yaniv Friedman, Yoav Lahini

Many complex and disordered systems fail to reach equilibrium after they have been quenched or perturbed. Instead, they sluggishly relax toward equilibrium at an ever-slowing, hist…

Dissipation indicates memory formation in driven disordered systems

Dor Shohat, Yoav Lahini

Disordered and amorphous materials often retain memories of perturbations they have experienced since preparation. Studying such memories is a gateway to understanding this challen…

Tension-controlled switch between collective actuations in active solids

Paul Baconnier, Dor Shohat, Olivier Dauchot

The recent finding of collective actuation in active solids, namely solids embedded with active units, opens the path towards multifunctional materials with genuine autonomy. In su…

Emergent Disorder and Mechanical Memory in Periodic Metamaterials

Chaviva Sirote-Katz, Dor Shohat, Carl Merrigan +3

Ordered mechanical systems typically have one or only a few stable rest configurations, and hence are not considered useful for encoding memory. Multistable and history-dependent r…

Memory from coupled instabilities in unfolded crumpled sheets

Dor Shohat, Daniel Hexner, Yoav Lahini

Crumpling an ordinary thin sheet transforms it into a structure with unusual mechanical behaviors, such as enhanced rigidity, emission of crackling noise, slow relaxations, and mem…
