Time Scales in the Theory of Elasto-Plasticity of Amorphous Solids
Laurent Boue, Peter Harrowell, Smarajit Karmakar +4
Developing a macroscopic theory of elasto-plasticity in amorphous solids calls for (i) identifying the relevant macro state-variables and (ii) discriminating the different time-sca…
Plasticity-Induced Anisotropy in Amorphous Solids: the Bauschinger Effect
Smarajit Karmakar, Edan Lerner, Itamar Procaccia
Amorphous solids that underwent a strain in one direction such that they responded in a plastic manner `remember' that direction also when relaxed back to a state with zero mean st…
Size of Plastic Events in Strained Amorphous Solids at Finite Temperatures
H. G. E. Hentschel, Smarajit Karmakar, Edan Lerner +1
We address the system-size dependence of typical plastic flow events when an amorphous solid is put under a fixed external strain rate at a finite temperature. For system sizes tha…
Predictive Statistical Mechanics for Glass Forming Systems
Laurent Boue, Edan Lerner, Itamar Procaccia +1
Using two extremely different models of glass formers in two and three dimensions we demonstrate how to encode the subtle changes in the geometric rearrangement of particles during…
Statistical Mechanics and Dynamics of a 3-Dimensional Glass-Forming System
Edan Lerner, Itamar Procaccia, Jacques Zylberg
In the context of a classical example of glass-formation in 3-dimensions we exemplify how to construct a statistical mechanical theory of the glass transition. At the heart of the…
Locality and Non-locality in Elasto-plastic Responses of Amorphous Solids
Edan Lerner, Itamar Procaccia
A number of current theories of plasticity in amorphous solids assume at their basis that plastic deformations are spatially localized. We present in this paper a series of numeric…
