Well defined transition to gel-like aggregates of attractive athermal particles
D. A. Head
In an attempt to extend the range of model jamming transitions, we simulate systems of athermal particles which attract when slightly overlapping. Following from recent work on pur…

First order rigidity transition and multiple stability regimes for random networks with internal stresses
D. A. Head
By applying effective medium-style calculations to random spring networks, we demonstrate that internal stresses fundamentally alter the nature of the rigidity transition in disord…
