The Eshelby problem in amorphous solids
H. George E. Hentschel, Avanish Kumar, Itamar Procaccia +1
The ``Eshelby problem" refers to the response of a 2-dimensional elastic sheet to cutting away a circle, deforming it into an ellipse, and pushing it back. The resulting response i…
Anomalous Elasticity in Classical Glass-formers
Avanish Kumar, Michael Moshe, Itamar Procaccia +1
Amorphous solids under mechanical strains are prone to plastic responses. Recent work showed that in amorphous granular system these plastic events, that are typically quadrupolar…
Microalloying and the mechanical properties of amorphous solids
H. George E. Hentschel, Michael Moshe, Itamar Procaccia +1
The mechanical properties of amorphous solids like metallic glasses can be dramatically changed by adding small concentrations (as low as 0.1\%) of foreign elements. The glass-form…
On the Effect of Micro-alloying on the Mechanical Properties of Metallic Glasses
Oleg Gendelman, J. Ashwin, Pankaj Mishra +2
"Micro-alloying", referring to the addition of small concentration of a foreign metal to a given metallic glass, was used extensively in recent years to attempt to improve the mech…
Atomistic theory of the shear band direction in amorphous solids
Ashwin J., Oleg Gendelman, Itamar Procaccia +1
One of the major theoretical riddles in shear banding instabilities is the angle that the shear band chooses spontaneously with respect to the principal stress axis. Here we employ…
Micro-alloying and the Toughness of Glasses: Modeling with Pinned Particles
Ratul Dasgupta, Pankaj Mishra, Itamar Procaccia +1
The usefulness of glasses, and particularly of metallic glasses, in technological applications is often limited by their toughness, which is defined as the area under the stress vs…
