Emergent Inter-particle Interactions in Thermal Amorphous Solids
Edan Lerner, Yoav G. Pollack, Itamar Procaccia +1
Amorphous media at finite temperatures, be them liquids, colloids or glasses, are made of interacting particles that move chaotically due to thermal energy, colliding and scatterin…
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…
Following the evolution of metastable glassy states under external perturbations: compression and shear-strain
Corrado Rainone
This thesis sums up the research work I performed as a PhD student in Sapienza Università di Roma, and École Normale Supérieure, Paris, under the joint supervision of Prof. Giorgio…
