Disorder Induced Nonlinear Mode Coupling and Symmetry Breaking in Amorphous Solids
Avanish Kumar, Itamar Procaccia, Murari Singh
Applying very small purely radial strains on amorphous solids in radial geometry one observes elastic responses that break the radial symmetry. Without any plasticity involved, the…
On the protocol dependence of plasticity in ultra-stable amorphous solids
Edan Lerner, Itamar Procaccia, Corrado Rainone +1
While perfect crystals may exhibit a purely elastic response to shear all the way to yielding, the response of amorphous solids is punctuated by plastic events. The prevalence of t…
How Generic are the Robust Theoretical Aspects of Jamming in Hard Sphere Models?
Giorgio Parisi, Yoav G. Pollack, Itamar Procaccia +2
In very recent work the mean field theory of the jamming transition in infinite dimensional hard spheres models was presented. Surprisingly, this theory predicts quantitatively num…
Statistics of Plastic Events in Post-Yield Strain-Controlled Amorphous Solids
Awadhesh K. Dubey, H. George E. Hentschel, Itamar Procaccia +1
Amorphous solids yield in strain-controlled protocols at a critical value of the strain. For larger strains the stress and energy display a generic complex serrated signal with ela…
Breakdown of Nonlinear Elasticity in Amorphous Solids at Finite Temperatures
Itamar Procaccia, Corrado Rainone, Carmel Shor +1
It is known by now that amorphous solids at zero temperature do not possess a nonlinear elasticity theory: besides the shear modulus which exists, all the higher order coefficients…
Mechanical Yield in Amorphous Solids: a First-Order Phase Transition
Prabhat Jaiswal, Itamar Procaccia, Corrado Rainone +1
Amorphous solids yield at a critical value of the strain (in strain controlled experiments); for larger strains the average stress can no longer increase - the system displays an e…
