Relevance of Shear Transformations in the Relaxation of Supercooled Liquids
Matthias Lerbinger, Armand Barbot, Damien Vandembroucq +1
While deeply supercooled liquids exhibit divergent viscosity and increasingly heterogeneous dynamics as the temperature drops, their structure shows only seemingly marginal changes…
Rejuvenation and Shear-Banding in model amorphous solids
Armand Barbot, Matthias Lerbinger, Anaël Lemaître +2
We measure the local yield stress, at the scale of small atomic regions, in a deeply quenched two-dimensional glass model undergoing shear banding in response to athermal quasistat…
Atomic nonaffinity as a predictor of plasticity in amorphous solids
Bin Xu, Michael L. Falk, Sylvain Patinet +1
Structural heterogeneity of amorphous solids present difficult challenges that stymie the prediction of plastic events, which are intimately connected to their mechanical behavior.…
Atomic-scale avalanche along a dislocation in a random alloy
Sylvain Patinet, Daniel Bonamy, L Proville
The propagation of dislocations in random crystals is evidenced to be governed by atomic-scale avalanches whose the extension in space and the time intermittency characterizingly d…
Finite size effects on crack front pinning at heterogeneous planar interfaces: Experimental, finite elements and perturbation approaches
Sylvain Patinet, L Alzate, E Barthel +3
Understanding the role played by the microstructure of materials on their macroscopic failure properties is an important challenge in solid mechanics. Indeed, when a crack propagat…
Depinning transition for a screw dislocation in a model solid solution
Sylvain Patinet, Laurent Proville
On the basis of the classical dislocation theory, the Solid Solution Hardening (SSH) is commonly ascribed to the pinning of the edge dislocations. At the atomic level, the theoreti…
