Persistent memory in athermal systems in deformable energy landscapes
D. Fiocco, G. Foffi, S. Sastry
We show that memory can be encoded in a model amorphous solid subjected to athermal oscillatory shear deformations, and in an analogous spin model with disordered interactions, sha…
Density-temperature scaling of the fragility in a model glass-former
Shiladitya Sengupta, Thomas B. Schröder, Srikanth Sastry
Dynamical quantities such as the diffusion coefficient and relaxation times for some glass-formers may depend on density and temperature through a specific combination, rather than…
Free volume distribution of nearly jammed hard sphere packings
Moumita Maiti, Srikanth Sastry
We calculate the free volume distributions of nearly jammed packings of monodisperse and bidisperse hard sphere configurations. These distributions differ qualitatively from those…
Oscillatory athermal quasi-static deformation of a model glass
Davide Fiocco, Giuseppe Foffi, Srikanth Sastry
We report computer simulations of oscillatory athermal quasi-static shear deformation of dense amorphous samples of a three dimensional model glass former. A dynamical transition i…
The Relationship of Dynamical Heterogeneity to the Adam-Gibbs and Random First-Order Transition Theories of Glass Formation
Francis W. Starr, Jack F. Douglas, Srikanth Sastry
We carefully examine common measures of dynamical heterogeneity for a model polymer melt and test how these scales compare with those hypothesized by the Adam and Gibbs (AG) and ra…
