A minimal-length approach unifies rigidity in under-constrained materials
Matthias Merkel, Karsten Baumgarten, Brian P. Tighe +1
We present a novel approach to understand geometric-incompatibility-induced rigidity in under-constrained materials, including sub-isostatic 2D spring networks and 2D and 3D vertex…
Non-local effects in inhomogeneous flows of soft athermal disks
Kuniyasu Saitoh, Brian P. Tighe
We numerically investigate non-local effects on inhomogeneous flows of soft athermal disks close to but below their jamming transition. We employ molecular dynamics to simulate Kol…
Sticky Matter: Jamming and rigid cluster statistics with attractive particle interactions
Dion J. Koeze, Brian P. Tighe
While the large majority of theoretical and numerical studies of the jamming transition consider athermal packings of purely repulsive spheres, real complex fluids and soft solids…
Universal scaling of flow curves: comparison between experiments and simulations
Riande I. Dekker, Maureen Dinkgreve, Henri de Cagny +3
Yield stress materials form an interesting class of materials that behave like solids at small stresses, but start to flow once a critical stress is exceeded. It has already been r…
