Isostaticity, auxetic response, surface modes, and conformal invariance in twisted kagome lattices
Kai Sun, Anton Souslov, Xiaoming Mao +1
Model lattices consisting of balls connected by central-force springs provide much of our understanding of mechanical response and phonon structure of real materials. Their stabili…

Effective Medium Theory of Filamentous Triangular Lattice
Xiaoming Mao, Olaf Stenull, T. C. Lubensky
We present an effective medium theory that includes bending as well as stretching forces, and we use it to calculate mechanical response of a diluted filamentous triangular lattice…

Rigidity percolation on the square lattice
Wouter G. Ellenbroek, Xiaoming Mao
The square lattice with central forces between nearest neighbors is isostatic with a subextensive number of floppy modes. It can be made rigid by the random addition of next-neares…
