Elastoplastic Modelling of Cyclic Shear Deformation of Amorphous Solids
Pushkar Khandare, Srikanth Sastry
We develop an energy-landscape based elasto-plastic model to understand the behaviour of amorphous solids under uniform and cyclic shear. Amorphous solids are modeled as being comp…

Stochasticity of fatigue failure times in sheared glasses
Swarnendu Maity, Pushkar Khandare, Himangsu Bhaumik +2
Fatigue failure occurs when a solid is subjected to repeated, cyclic loading. Glasses subjected to cyclic shear deformation have recently been investigated using computer simulatio…
