Topological defects govern plasticity and shear band formation in two-dimensional amorphous solids
Xin Wang, Jin Shang, Yujie Wang +2
Understanding the fundamental mechanisms behind plastic instabilities and shear band formation in amorphous media under applied deformation remains a long-standing challenge. Lever…
Jamming as a topological satisfiability transition with contact number hyperuniformity and criticality
Jin Shang, Yinqiao Wang, Deng Pan +2
The jamming transition between flow and amorphous-solid states exhibits paradoxical properties characterized by hyperuniformity (suppressed spatial fluctuations) and criticality (h…
Lift force in chiral, compressible granular matter
Jarosław Pawłowski, Marcin Dudziak, Matteo Baggioli +2
Micropolar fluid theory, an extension of classical Newtonian fluid dynamics, incorporates angular velocities and rotational inertias and has long been a foundational framework for…
Stress-stress correlations in two-dimensional amorphous and crystalline solids
Jimin Bai, Long-Zhou Huang, Jin Shang +3
Stress-stress correlations in crystalline solids with long-range order can be straightforwardly derived using elasticity theory. In contrast, the `emergent elasticity' of amorphous…
