Nanoindentation-induced evolution of atomic-level properties in silicate glass: Insights from molecular dynamics simulations
Linfeng Ding, Ranran Lu, Lianjun Wang +3
Indentation has been widely used for investigating the mechanical behavior of glasses. However, how the various microscopic properties (such as atomic structure and mechanics) of g…
Modern Definition of Bioactive Glasses and Glass-Ceramics
Adam Shearer, Maziar Montazerian, John C. Mauro
Bioactive glasses (BGs) and glass-ceramics (BGCs) have become a diverse family of materials being applied for treatment of many medical conditions. The traditional understanding of…
Viscosity of Silica and Doped Silica Melts: Evidence for a Crossover Temperature
John C. Mauro, Charles R. Kurkjian, Prabhat K. Gupta +1
Silica is known as the archetypal strong liquid, exhibiting an Arrhenius viscosity curve with a high glass transition temperature and constant activation energy. However, given the…
Ion Exchange in Silicate Glasses: Physics of Ion Concentration, Residual Stress, and Refractive Index Profiles
Guglielmo Macrelli, Arun K. Varshneya, John C. Mauro
A systematic review of main physical effects generated by ion exchange in silicate glasses is presented. Ion concentration distributions, residual stress profiles, and refractive i…
Prediction of Glass Elasticity from Free Energy Density of Topological Constraints
Collin J. Wilkinson, Qiuju Zheng, Liping Huang +1
Despite the critical importance of the elastic properties of modern materials, there is not a singular model that can predict the modulus to an accuracy needed for industrial glass…
Statistical Mechanics of Topological Fluctuations in Glass-Forming Liquids
Katelyn A. Kirchner, Seong H. Kim, John C. Mauro
All liquids are topologically disordered materials; however, the degree of disorder can vary as a result of internal fluctuations in structure and topology. These fluctuations depe…
On the Prony Series Representation of Stretched Exponential Relaxation
John C. Mauro, Yihong Z. Mauro
Stretched exponential relaxation is a ubiquitous feature of homogeneous glasses. The stretched exponential decay function can be derived from the diffusion-trap model, which predic…
Workplace Accidents and Self-Organized Criticality
John C. Mauro, Brett Diehl, Richard F. Marcellin +1
The occurrence of workplace accidents is described within the context of self-organized criticality, a theory from statistical physics that governs a wide range of phenomena across…
Rebuttal to Schmelzer and Tropin: Glass Transition, Crystallization of Glass-Forming Melts, and Entropy
Edgar D. Zanotto, John C. Mauro
In a recent article, Schmelzer and Tropin [Entropy 20 [2] 103 (2018)] presented an unfounded, confusing critique of several aspects of modern glass science. Relying on pre-Socratic…
Stretched Exponential Relaxation of Glasses: Origin of the Mixed Alkali Effect
Yingtian Yu, John C. Mauro, Mathieu Bauchy
Although it is indeed commonly believed that, as frozen supercooled liquids, glasses should continue to flow over the years (e.g., in the case of the stained-glass windows of medie…
A New Transferable Interatomic Potential for Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Borosilicate Glasses
Mengyi Wang, N. M. Anoop Krishnan, Bu Wang +3
Borosilicate glasses are traditionally challenging to model using atomic scale simulations due to the composition and thermal history dependence of the coordination state of B atom…
Cooling-Rate Effects in Sodium Silicate Glasses: Bridging the Gap between Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Experiments
Xin Li, Weiying Song, Kai Yang +7
Although molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are commonly used to predict the structure and properties of glasses, they are intrinsically limited to short time scales, necessitatin…
Nano-Ductility in Silicate Glasses is Driven by Topological Heterogeneity
Bu Wang, Yingtian Yu, Mengyi Wang +2
The existence of nanoscale ductility during the fracture of silicate glasses remains controversial. Here, based on molecular dynamics simulations coupled with topological constrain…
