The Jamming Transition and the Marginally Stable Solid

Francesco Arceri, Eric I. Corwin, Corey S. O'Hern

We review the physics of jamming from the theoretical, experimental and numerical perspectives. We summarize the mean-field theory of jamming and the marginally stable solid phase,…

Marginal Stability Enables Memory Training in Jammed Solids

Francesco Arceri, Eric I. Corwin, Varda F. Hagh

Memory encoding by cyclic shear is a reliable process to store information in jammed solids, yet its underlying mechanism and its connection to the amorphous structure are not full…

A direct link between active matter and sheared granular systems

Peter K. Morse, Sudeshna Roy, Elisabeth Agoritsas +3

The similarity in mechanical properties of dense active matter and sheared amorphous solids has been noted in recent years without a rigorous examination of the underlying mechanis…

Dionysian Hard Sphere Packings are Mechanically Stable at Vanishingly Low Densities

R. C. Dennis, E. I. Corwin

High strength-to-weight ratio materials can be constructed by either maximizing strength or minimizing weight. Tensegrity structures and aerogels take very different paths to achie…

Mean-Field Predictions of Scaling Prefactors Match Low-Dimensional Jammed Packings

James D Sartor, Sean A. Ridout, Eric I. Corwin

No known analytic framework precisely explains all the phenomena observed in jamming. The replica theory for glass and jamming is a mean field theory which attempts to do so by wor…

Interplay between percolation and glassiness in the random Lorentz gas

Giulio Biroli, Patrick Charbonneau, Eric I. Corwin +4

The random Lorentz gas (RLG) is a minimal model of transport in heterogeneous media. It also models the dynamics of a tracer in a glassy system. These two perspectives, however, ar…
