Anisotropy in granular media: classical elasticity and directed force chain network
M. Otto, J. -P. Bouchaud, P. Claudin +1
A general approach is presented for understanding the stress response function in anisotropic granular layers in two dimensions. The formalism accommodates both classical anisotrop…

Force chain splitting in granular materials: a mechanism for large scale pseudo-elastic behaviour
J. -P. Bouchaud, P. Claudin, D. Levine +1
We investigate both numerically and analytically the effect of strong disorder on the large scale properties of the hyperbolic equations for stresses proposed in \protect\cite{bcc,…

Elasticity of entangled polymer loops: Olympic gels
T. A. Vilgis, M. Otto
In this note we present a scaling theory for the elasticity of olympic gels, i.e., gels where the elasticity is a consequence of topology only. It is shown that two deformation reg…
