Elasticity, plasticity and screening in amorphous solids: a short review
Avanish Kumar, Itamar Procaccia
The aim of this short review is to summarize the developing theory aimed at describing the effect of plastic events in amorphous solids on its emergent mechanics. Experiments and s…
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…
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…
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…
Density of Quasi-localized Modes in Glasses: where are the Two-Level Systems?
Avanish Kumar, Itamar Procaccia, Murari Singh
The existence of a constant density of two-level systems (TLS) was proposed as the basis of some intriguing universal aspects of glasses at ultra-low temperatures. Here we ask whet…
Particles confined in arbitrary potentials with a class of finite-ranged interactions
Avanish Kumar, Manas Kulkarni, Anupam Kundu
In this paper, we develop a large- field theory for a system of classical particles in one dimension at thermal equilibrium. The particles are confined by an arbitrary exter…
