Reversibility and hysteresis of the sharp yielding transition of a colloidal glass under oscillatory shear
M. T. Dang, D. V. Denisov, B. Struth +2
The mechanical response of glasses remains challenging to understand. Recent results indicate that the oscillatory rheology of soft glasses is accompanied by a sharp non-equilibriu…
Free energy of sheared colloidal glasses
M. T. Dang, V. Chikkadi, R. Zargar +4
We develop a free energy framework to describe the response of glasses to applied stress. Unlike crystals, for which the free energy increases quadratically with strain due to affi…
Particle response during the yielding transition of colloidal glasses
D. V. Denisov, M. T. Dang, B. Struth +2
Yielding is central to the relaxation, flow and fracture of a wide range of soft and molecular glasses, but its microscopic origin remains unclear. Here, we elucidate the yielding…
Shear banding of colloidal glasses - a dynamic first order transition?
V. Chikkadi, D. M. Miedema, B. Nienhuis +1
We demonstrate that application of an increasing shear field on a glass leads to an intriguing dynamic first order transition in analogy to equilibrium transitions. By following th…
Resolving structural modifications of colloidal glasses by combining x-ray scattering and rheology
D. V. Denisov, M. T. Dang, B. Struth +2
Glasses have liquid-like structure, but exhibit solid-like properties. A central question concerns the relation between the structure and mechanical properties of glasses, but stru…
