Low-energy quasilocalized excitations in structural glasses
Edan Lerner, Eran Bouchbinder
Glassy solids exhibit a wide variety of generic thermomechanical properties, ranging from universal anomalous specific heat at cryogenic temperatures to nonlinear plastic yielding…
Bond-space operator disentangles quasi-localized and phononic modes in structural glasses
Julia A Giannini, David Richard, M. Lisa Manning +1
The origin of several emergent mechanical and dynamical properties of structural glasses is often attributed to populations of localized structural instabilities, coined quasilocal…
A unified quantifier of mechanical disorder in solids
Geert Kapteijns, Eran Bouchbinder, Edan Lerner
Mechanical disorder in solids, which is generated by a broad range of physical processes and controls various material properties, appears in a wide variety of forms. Defining unif…
Self-oscillation and Synchronisation Transitions in Elasto-Active Structures
Ellen Zheng, Martin Brandenbourger, Louis Robinet +3
The interplay between activity and elasticity often found in active and living systems triggers a plethora of autonomous behaviors ranging from self-assembly and collective motion…
Finite-size study of the athermal quasistatic yielding transition in structural glasses
Richard David, Rainone Corrado, Lerner Edan
We present a finite-size study of the athermal quasistatic yielding transition in structural glasses featuring a wide range of mechanical disorder. We find a crossover from gradual…
Brittle to ductile transitions in glasses: Roles of soft defects and loading geometry
David Richard, Edan Lerner, Eran Bouchbinder
Understanding the fracture toughness of glasses is of prime importance for science and technology. We study it here using extensive atomistic simulations in which the interaction p…
Does mesoscopic elasticity control viscous slowing down in glassforming liquids?
Geert Kapteijns, David Richard, Eran Bouchbinder +3
The dramatic slowing down of relaxation dynamics of liquids approaching the glass transition remains a highly debated problem, where the crux of the puzzle resides in the elusive i…
