Searching for structural predictors of plasticity in dense active packings
Julia A. Giannini, Ethan M. Stanifer, M. Lisa Manning
In amorphous solids subject to shear or thermal excitation, so-called structural indicators have been developed that predict locations of future plasticity or particle rearrangemen…
Effective medium theory of random regular networks
Ojan Khatib Damavandi, M. Lisa Manning, J. M. Schwarz
Disordered spring networks can exhibit rigidity transitions, due to either the removal of materials in over-constrained networks or the application of strain in under-constrained o…
Avalanche dynamics in sheared athermal particle packings occurs via localized bursts predicted by unstable linear response
Ethan Stanifer, M. Lisa Manning
Under applied shear strain, granular and amorphous materials deform via particle rearrangements, which can be small and localized or organized into system-spanning avalanches. Whil…
Energetic rigidity II: Applications in examples of biological and underconstrained materials
Ojan Khatib Damavandi, Varda F. Hagh, Christian D. Santangelo +1
This is the second paper devoted to energetic rigidity, in which we apply our formalism to examples in two dimensions: underconstrained random regular spring networks, vertex model…
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…
Free-then-freeze: transient learning degrees of freedom for introducing function in materials
Varda F. Hagh, Sidney R. Nagel, Andrea J. Liu +2
The introduction of transient learning degrees of freedom into a system can lead to novel material design and training protocols that guide a system into a desired metastable state…
