Unconventional rheological properties in systems of deformable particles
Anshuman Pasupalak, Shawn Khuhan Samidurai, Yanwei Li +3
We demonstrate the existence of unconventional rheological and memory properties in systems of soft-deformable particles whose energy depends on their shape, via numerical simulati…
Long-wavelength fluctuations and dimensionality crossover in confined liquids
Jing Yang, Yan-Wei Li, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
The phase behavior of liquids confined in a slit geometry does not reveal a crossover from a three to a two-dimensional behavior as the gap size decreases. Indeed, the prototypical…
Unifying description of the vibrational anomalies of amorphous materials
Shivam Mahajan, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
The vibrational density of states of solids controls their thermal and transport properties. In crystals, the low-frequency modes are extended phonons distributed in frequen…
Emergence of linear isotropic elasticity in amorphous and polycrystalline materials
Shivam Mahajan, Joyjit Chattoraj, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
We investigate the emergence of isotropic linear elasticity in amorphous and polycrystalline solids, via extensive numerical simulations. We show that the elastic properties are co…
Jamming as a random first-order percolation transition
Antonio Piscitelli, Antonio Coniglio, Annalisa Fierro +1
We determine the dimensional dependence of the percolative exponents of the jamming transition via numerical simulations in four and five spatial dimensions. These novel results co…
Softness, anomalous dynamics, and fractal-like energy landscape in model cell tissues
Yan-Wei Li, Leon Loh Yeong Wei, Matteo Paoluzzi +1
Epithelial cell tissues have a slow relaxation dynamics resembling that of supercooled liquids. Yet, they also have distinguishing features. These include an extended short-time su…
